Jersey retiree has been glad he bought his
MARK V since 1956!
Harry P. of
Lawrenceville, NJ writes...
“I have owned my MARV V since 1956 and have made a number of pieces
of furniture with it. It is a most useful piece of machinery. It's true
that with it and some accessories, you need nothing more to do almost
any kind of woodworking. I'm sure glad I bought mine in 1956.”
San Diego woodworker refusese to part with his 10-ER
P. Jones writes...
“I've been the proud owner of a Shopsmith 10-ER since 1948. It's
given me wonderful service and is now an indispensable member of the shop
power tools I use. Years ago, I visited a demonstration to get a look
at the Shopsmith MARK V and found it much improved. If my current unit
gives out on me, I shall have my order in for a new one immediately, as
I couldn't operate without my Shopsmith. There's just no other tool that
can do what it can do!”
Wisconsin man feels the MARK V is the “perfect” tool for seniors
Art K. of
Racine, WI writes...
“The Shopsmith MARK V is a remarkable machine. It certainly does
exactly what your literature says it will do. In fact, the very first
time I used it last week, I mad a toy box for my little grandson that
put the marketable one to shame, when you consider that it cost me about
half what the store-bought model was. I made mine with 3/4" plywood vs.
1/2" or 1/4" plywood, stapled and unassembled!
More and more every year, people are retiring at an earlier age, and the need for productive pastime hobbies is so vital. I would suggest that you solicit the senior age group in whatever way possible. It might surprise you the business available from this class of user. You have an excellent machine - good luck.”
