:confused: I've had my Shopsmith since 1978. It's still a 500. I'm so much
a part of it I can't bring myself to upgrade. Shortly after buying the Shopsmith
I also got the power jigsaw/scrollsaw, which gets used more then any other
part of this machine. Unfortunatly this item is no longer available from
Shopsmith and its getting old and worn, it needs parts or I may have to give it
up soon. Anybody got any leads to parts for this item?? I really don't want to give up this machine. The combination jigsaw/scrollsaw has come in extreamly
handy.:(

I've got 2 and willing to part with one or both. Please email me at hollis_gov@yahoo.com for further information.

Thanks,

I don't know when SS stopped selling these and how many were sold with the name SS but the ones I have are Magna (before it became SS) and I have the pulley to fit the 10ER. I just replied to this because you asked if anyone had one.

Just be careful who you buy from and how you pay. There have been some horrible stories to be told about people and fraud with regard to Shopsmith products. Most are legit but you just never know.

What parts do you need?

SS still sells quite a few of the parts, but you need a breakdown sheet to find the numbers. You have to call them to get it.

If they don't have what you're looking for, I've got an organ-donor jigsaw in my basement somewhere.

Or is it one of the older ones with the tubular arm?

Does anyone know which Delta blades fit my model 610 18" jigsaw? Linda at customer service told me Shopsmith no longer stocks parts for this model, but she had heard Delta made blades that would fit, but didn't know which ones.

There are numbers of places to get blades. Just need to know what you want and need.


Does this model use only pinned blades or can it use unpinned?
Five inch or six inch?
what kind of work are you doing? Really fine or general?

I can't remember the spec on this puppy. I used to know, but am just not sure. I have a couple of dandy sources for you when you share what blades you're needing.
