Wood Master with Shopsmith
I have a Mark V 510 that I am thinking about upgrading the headstock to a Power Pro. I also have access to an old Wood Master. I am wondering if I upgrade, would my 510 headstock slide on to the wood Master frame?

Re: Wood Master with Shopsmith
It appears to be a shopsmith clone.
Re: Wood Master with Shopsmith
Its funny this name came up just now as I just saw one of these for sale in my area...without seeing the name first-I thought it was an old SS. Heres a couple pics of
the one near me.
It peaked my interest-but only a little-it is indeed some kind of SS clone, but the exact history/origin of these took too much digging and I drifted off to other things.
There seems to be a small following of people who have these and are looking for pieces to keep them running. (not that I'm in a better position currently with my SS )

Re: Wood Master with Shopsmith
I measured them quickly but hard to make sure they are exact. The wey tubes seem right but the bench tubes seem smaller in diameter.
Re: Wood Master with Shopsmith
The head stock fits on the way tubes. That is all that maters. The size of the bench tubes make no difference.bduemig wrote:I measured them quickly but hard to make sure they are exact. The wey tubes seem right but the bench tubes seem smaller in diameter.

Re: Wood Master with Shopsmith
From what I have read about the "clones" some parts are interchangeable and other are not. I have also seen mixed machines, SS and "clone" parts. The picture below shows one of these combinations. I do not recall which "clone" it is but I do not believe it's a Woodmaster.

Re: Wood Master with Shopsmith
I'm very new to this form. I found a woodmaster I thought it was a shopsmith at first but I'm buying anyways I I don't know anything about these types of tools so any help I could get would be great. Also where to find parts . It has a 2 horsepower motor
