Default Shopsmith

given the much greater rigidity found on most metal working tools, upgrading
a shopsmith could be, shall we say, "challenging" - but a lot of metal
working practices trasfer to wood when you want a particular kidn of
precision

news In the current issue of one of the metal working magazines (maybe Home Shop
Machinist) there is an introductory article of a series on upgrading and
modifying an old shopsmith to do metalworking. The pictures and the mods
look very interesting even if you do not want to work metal.
