No other Woodworking System can match the variety of versatile, work-saving accessories offered by the Shopsmith MARK V System. NONE!
So, when you’re ready to move ahead to more complex projects, your Shopsmith MARK V is ready to move ahead with you.
It’s the most expandable, Complete Home Shop System in the World.
Reduce the amount of effort required to raise your MARK V from Table Saw to Drill Press mode
by
60%, 65%, 76%
–
DOWN TO ZERO!
... with the
Shopsmith MARK V Lift-Assist
This is the accessory many MARK V owners
have been wanting for some time. As we get
older, we’re not as strong as we used to be ...
and those things that were once easy for us
are now a bit more difficult. It’s all a part of life.
Lifting the MARK V from horizontal to vertical
position is one of those procedures that can get
a bit tougher with age. The taller you are, of
course, the higher you’ll want your Drill Press
Table once it’s raised ... and the more difficult
it gets to make the move.

Work smarter – Grow faster
Successful woodworking depends on learning new skills and sometimes,
specialized tools will help you learn those skills faster. Here’s an example.
To make some attractive, tongue-and-groove wainscoting for the
walls of your dining room, you could cut the mating joints with multiple
passes of a saw blade or dado set. Tedious, but it can be done.
Or, you could save a lot of work by using a tongue-and-groove knife
set with a Molder or Shaper set-up. Timeless accessories from Shopsmith.
With very few exceptions, the Accessories we develop for today’s
Model 510 and 520 MARK V’s will work with the Model 500 MARK
V your father or grandfather bought in 1953. So, remember ... when
you’re ready to build your skills into new territory, we’re ready to help
you do just that.
Using Shopsmith’s Lift-Assist
with our Steel Storage Cabinets
When using the
Lift-Assist
, all three Cabinets
will
not
fit between the MARK V’s legs.
If your Cabinets are on casters, only one
Cabinet will fit. Without casters, two cabinets
will fit.
Model MARK V. Destined to become the favorite
accessory of many MARK V Owners.
