A jump over to the dark side as this is not a Delta machine. . . . I bought this from a friend mainly out of curiousity for the tool. I remember seeing the MK 5 demonstrations at the mall when I was younger and reading about the 10ER in the literature about the history of Shopsmith. It's a pretty good tool, but I won't be liquidating my Delta tooling anytime soon and use this as a replacement. Restoration was pretty much a complete disassembly, power wash/scrubbing and repaint. I scoured the web and found a good deal of literature on the 10ER to help me with setups, alignments, etc. It's a heavy sucker with a lot of cast iron.
