Re: Shopsmith 8" Jointer Idea???
There is a disconnect here. Shopsmith had sold a lot of tools over the years, but there's only like 5-10 people on these forums who actively contribute. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I equate forum contributors as representative of "active users" of the tools. If true, market share is non-existen...

Re: BREAKING NEWS: Shopsmith, Inc. Has A New Owner
It will be interesting to watch which way this thing breaks. From an M+A viewpoint , I'm hard pressed to imagine what assets are sellable aside from inventory.
