I don't see the need for more sections. there are already times when I am not sure which section to put a post in, adding more sections just adds to the confusion. Also thread that start on one topic can veer in unexpected directions, that is only natural, and not necessarily detrimental.
I do however try to include "10ER" in the subject heading if I start a thread that is 10ER specific so that members who are not interested can skip that discussion.
On the other hand unless I win the lottery, (and I don't buy tickets, so that isn't likely) I will never own a PowerPro or a 510/520, but I still read posts that cover them, there might be information there that is also applicable the equipment that I do own, and even if not it is interesting and instructive to see how problems are diagnosed and solved.

Re: 10ER Posts, A Lot of Wishful Thinking
Dusty, i am usually on your side, but on this we differ. Using your logic on differences and conflicting operations, the same could be said about the Mark 7 AND the Powerpro. Do we need different sections on those as well?dusty wrote:Oh, I so wish that there was a section here on the forum dedicated to 10E/10ER information.
Still another one for the Mark VII would be nice.
I find it interesting that a machine made 70 years ago is still relevant enough to even be brought up on a forum like this. I learn a lot from the questions concerning the 10ER because many times the questions are really still relevant to all Shopsmith machines (latest case in point is turning speed).
Just my observation .....

Lover, I thought Chris was referring to one of US here.ChrisNeilan wrote:Think of the forum as a wedding reception. You have a seating chart. You have to find a place for the wacky uncle. The 10 er is that uncle. He is part of the family. Make him welcome!
There are more similarities than differences when it come to how to do a task on a Shopsmith.
My nieces and nephews think I AM that wacky uncle.

10 ER, stripped down.
Basic 10ER, Parts machine. Will be a semi-dedicated drill-press machine.
10 ER, a "survivor" of the trailer fire, in the back yard, needing restoration. Has a Mk5 headrest. Finally, stripped down.
Numerous parts, for Model 10 stuff. Except for lower saw guard, A and B adapters, I've got it.
Looking for one more, or some 9 inch extension table raisers.

Re: 10ER Posts, A Lot of Wishful Thinking
I would personally take a different line on that family seating chart.
The 10E would be the Patriarch of the Family, not a quirky uncle.
The 10E is Hans Goldschmidt's first child so to speak. Everything sprang from that tree.
I agree the current Shopsmith Inc. is a different company, but Hans led the transition to the Mark V family himself.

Re: 10ER Posts, A Lot of Wishful Thinking
Everett, you are correct!
However, there is less difference between
the 2 Model 10s, than the Mark 5/V stuff.
And, the 2 Mark 7/VII models?
I've had 3 or 4 10Es and all of them were
converted to ERs, with one exception.
That one had the E tailstock and ext
table bracket. (No, didn't get the wooden
extension table, just the bracket.)
Oh, COMPLETELY off subject, is anyone
aware that a German scientist made the
Thermite mixture, Hans Goldschmidt.
(No, not the same one!)

Re: 10ER Posts, A Lot of Wishful Thinking
Actually Hans participated in the development of the Mark 5.
SS Inc. dreamed up the V after initially making Mark 5s then the future Mark 5s became identified as Mark V 500 to distinguish them from the Mark V 505/510. . .
