I think the ShopSmith is one of the most overlooked Luthier’s tools money can buy. Re-sawing, horizontal and vertical drilling, disk sanding, drum sanding, conical sanding, indexing, etc. For the beginning luthier a used ShopSmith can be had for a very reasonable price and can be added to with accessories and upgraded to the Power Pro headstock…all over time.
