In Response To: Are Shopsmiths any good? (Brian Nystrom)

I have never used one myself, but my uncle has one. He loves the machine, but says its a hassle to have to completly change the setup every time he needs to use a different function. If you plan your projects well, and can do steps together(i.e tablesaw, then drill press, ect) this machine could be wonderful. He says his is just as accurate as any individule machine he has used. He has been recomending them to me for a while.
