Shopsmith and Spock

[John Morris]

I knew it! In order to be a Shopsmith owner, you must be logical about your woodworking!

Except, Spock is using the tablesaw backwards?

 Luckily he probably never even plugged it in.

...Maybe he's got the blade on backwards!

Well, that piece of wood is about to be a projectile and the camera person is about to be the target.  Oh, what fun!!!  

 

John, you do have to be logical to use any of these power tools, and you have to be logical in your process as well as using the tools.

There was some other commentary where I got this image from, he is posing for the camera man. The cameraman could not get the shot he wanted from the machine and the wall behind, so they stuck Spock on the other side, not thinking that folks in the 60's would catch on as quickly as we are now! I knew Spock was logical!

ER Doctors disagree with this theory.

Just a couple things I noticed, some fishing poles in to the right behind Spock, and a box of Dri-zit. Hmmm, any of you older timers know what the Dri-Zit is, I assume it's not for acne?

And then someone used it in a kitty litter box.

That's pretty much everything I use my sawdust to do.

Cheaper. I keep a bucket outside my shop door for oops moments.

Is he actually using a BALLPOINT on wood? Doesn't he know that the ink can run?

I'm pretty sure it can't without some help
