Everything on it works just fine and quite safely. My father had one when I
was a teenager. I used it more than he did. Had about every accessory that
could be had. Just have to be smarter than the machine.

Was the RAS the precursor of the ShopSmith? Seems
like a damn dangerous woodworking Swiss Army Pocket
Knife - rip saw, cross cut saw, dado, rabbet, drill, boring
machine, horizontal mortiser - PLANER? Bit too crazy and
scary for me.
