Thanks for the tip. I need to figure out where to run some "want" ads.
Maybe the local "Thrifty (Little) Nickel" might even offer some possibility
of success.

Yep, I had a set of grain elevator scales at a business
property. I tried for a year or two to sell them for $50
and finally walked away from them and let them go with the
property when I sold it. Somewhere I still have a box of
those little carboned cardboard scale tickets that you
stuck in the slot and squeezed the handle to print them.
All I ever used those scales for was as a solid platform to
set a coke machine on under a security light... :-) We
used to go out every morning and pick up all of the pennies
that people with money to throw away just tossed out on the
ground rather than carry them. It didn't bother me to put
them in our change jar. It was about a buck or two a week.

I have created a local Shopsmith users list for my area.
It is described as follows:
This is to be a list for Shopsmith owners and want to be
owners in the general area of Indiana. If you are across
the line in OH or IL that is fine too. I don't want to draw
a hard line but I hope for all members to be within a
reasonable driving distance of each other. This list is for
sharing woodworking tips and stories and Shopsmith tips and
stories but also is to be used for the buying, selling and
swapping of Shopsmith tools, accessories and parts between
members of this list.
