It featured variable speed like the Mark V and as long as it has the optional "Add-a-Tool" mounting bracket in it, it can even power the SPT's from the Shopsmith line including a 4" Jointer, an 11" Bandsaw, an Air Compressor, etc. If you ever stumble across this saw don't stop to think about it, buy it. These can be had from $75-300 depending on their condition and the accessories. At the time of this post I own three SawSmith RAS's, all of which are undergoing restoration. This rebuild will be covered in detail on our Sawsmith Tool Hunter blog. And make sure not to miss the great articles and ads on our cleverly named "Shopsmith Articles and Ads" page.

Here's a link to Fun With A Saw on eBay. One final note: A recently listing of a Sawsmith RAS and Jointer was won by ME(!) for a ridiculously low price. The seller obviously didn't know much about the tool and left out several key words that would have led more buyers to it. The link above worked just fine, and it was how I discovered it. Take that as a lesson and add us to your favorites and check back often. |
