Would enjoy either paper or e-format and I think it would be neat if each issue contained a "Best of the Forum" section...there is a wealth of really uselful information archived here it would be great to see it shared.

[quote="BuckeyeDennis"]Beats me! I have yet to consume all the Shopsmith info that is already published and freely available on the web.
For example, I just learned that a Shopsmith itself can serve as a dandy panel glue-up press! This gleaned from Shop Notes #3.
Same issue, I learned that a Shopsmith makes a handy-dandy heavy-duty food mixer. Very cool. Guy to wife, neighbors, etc.: "Mine is bigger than yours!!!" Milkshake, anyone?
Oh yea. Need a 15" pulley for really low spindle speeds on your 10ER? No problem, just make one out of plywood. On your 10ER. Expensive speed changers are for sissies! ]
Woah there Buckeye!!!
I don't know about others here, but as an at least near on newbie I was under the impression that Shop Notes were not to be so easily found.
So I ask you, PLEASE SIR, please provide the most direct link to this cadre of publications past of which you"ve only supplied a few pages.
This I would be most pleased to have at hand.
Mind you, this would in no way preclude my interest in the publication under discussion at present. Where I would expect to find fresh material.

Here you go. You can also go to VintageMachinery.org, do a manufacturer search for Magna Engineering, and then click on the Publications tab.idcook wrote:Woah there Buckeye!!!

Starting with issue #4, the name of the newsletter was changed to "Shopsmith Shavings." So this may not be the same Shop Notes publication you have in mind.

Mind? Two postings back I was beginning to wonder if I deserved to regard myself as actually having a mind. All this great source material around and I without so much as an inkling. pshaw!
Anyway, thanks for the link and directives. I’m already enjoying reading bits along the way as I indulge myself in a sort of download frenzy.
Thanks again.
