Saw this advertised on CL tonight...Something I'd never seen before & thought it was too cool not to share...

Pictures are from the actual posting...

I do believe Mr. Goldberg would be proud.

Now how cool is that? 

Hey Fred Wilson.....Here's your velocipede replacement.

Ah, this is the Shopsmith Mark I that  preceded the 10ER.

What are the two functions? My gestalt function isn't working.

The verbiage in the Ad said drill press & jig saw (scroll saw). I could make out the scroll saw part but had to study the machine a bit to locate the drill press...That vertical shaft with the large wooden pulley appears to be the drill press spindle. It has a collet with a screw on the bottom of the shaft. The long red handle moves the spindle down and the large "spring steel" rod apparently functions as a "return spring."

very cool...

This looks like it may be a one of a kind tool. It looks like there are 2 separate belts, one for the saw, which appears to be on the pulleys and one for the drill press laying loose under the tool which fits on the pulley on the DP shaft and would run to the pulleys at the rear and on to the drive wheel below.
