Shopsmith-Edition Incra TS-LS Positioning Fence System

Post by RFGuy »

I thought the PowerPro was expensive...but I was wrong. Has anyone checked the latest price of the Shopsmith version of the Incra TS-LS fence system? I had to do a double take when I saw this. $10k for an Incra fence?

No, SS has done that in the past when items were not available. The Pro Planer was listed that way before it was dropped from the catalog.

I just thought that maybe one of the new poeple they hired last year was a former Festool employee.
Thanks much,
