Re: Just bought my first SS... now I have questions
JPG- I appreciate the breakdown of the saw table changes to identify the models. I’m pretty sure looking at it that I have a 500. What is your opinion on upgrading it to the 510 or 520 table?

Just bought my first SS... now I have questions
So today I bought my first Shopsmith. I did a little research over the last week and now I have a few questions before I dig to far into upgrading/restoring.
