Restorer of
antiques uses MARK V to become an accomplished woodworker
Jim
Sunser of Patton, PA writes . . .
"Most of my work in an antique shop consists of repairing
and refinishing furniture. However, one day, I spied an old dry
sink that I really wanted. So, with my MARK V, a pile of old oak
lumber, a bag of square-headed nails and 18 hours of work, I reproduced
the dry sink at almost no expense.
I've had no previous power tool woodworking experience, but thanks
to your easy-to-operate equipment, I'm gaining confidence."
MARK V owner discovers that having the right tools can make a
BIG difference

"My daughter's three-drawer bed was finished with my Shopsmith
MARK V. I say "finished" because I started it over four years ago
but had given up on completing it because I thought the construction
was beyond my abilities. It wasn't until I acquired my MARK V and
built a few starter projects that I realized the former problem
was in my equipment and not in my abilities.
Your marvelous machine can make a woodworker out of anyone !"
Texan says
his MARK V has "sure paid for itself"

"Back in the early 50's, my wife bought me a brand-new Shopsmith
MARK V. No one knew how to run it or set it up, so when it came
out in a wooden crate, it went into the empty side of our double
garage and Voila!, I had a woodworking shop ! In a paper sack on
top of the crate was a copy of Power Tool Woodworking for Everyone.
With it as my "bible", I learned from scratch how to make things
out of wood.
Looking back over all these years, that old Shopsmith has sure
turned out a gigantic amount of work. After 43 years, that 'ol machine
has sure paid for itself. It's still out in my shop....working away.
I couldn't do without it."
Son couldn't
wait to inherit dad's MARK V -- so he bought his own !

Writt of Houston, TX writes...
"I was first introduced to the Shopsmith MARK V about 25
years ago when my Father and I attended a seminar at a shopping
mall in Elyria, Ohio. I talked him into buying one on the spot and
he's really enjoyed using it through the years. In fact, he still
compliments me today for talking him into buying it and has built
numerous projects with it. His current project is helping my Mother
in building a doll house.
I bought my own MARK V last year (I couldn't wait for Dad to give
me his) and used it to build my first project (a walnut bookcase).
I couldn't be any happier because I know that my Shopsmith will
last a lifetime, just like my Dad's."
