I've recently inherited quite a few tools and one is a Shopsmith that Dad usually used as a lathe, since he also had most of the other accessories as stand alones. I've used it before but never with grand results. Using it yesterday I was thinking about the height of the tool rest- I'm sure there is a proper spot for it to sit. I've been trying different spots but would feel safer knowing instead of guessing.
Very impressive work displayed on the posts that I've looked over.
Thanks for your time- Greg
