Hi all. I have a Shopsmith Mark V that I obtained in 1987 and used
two or three times at most. I moved from the Montreal area
(relatively humid in summer, dry in winter) to the Sierras in
California in 2001 [...]

If you're going to live in the *Sierra*, you might want to learn the
correct use of it (the word is a plural noun in Spanish).

Very common mistake, by the way.
