All the Magna stuff is the precurser of Shopsmith. It is some old tooling ( in the ‘50s ). I have the band saw and love it for what it is. There are those who will say the SS is a bit of a dino in that takes a bunch of time to reset between applications. Sure. They’re correct, but the components are quality parts. I have the power stand for the BS and the jointer (4”, and of limited use ‘cause of short in and outfeed capabilities).
Can’t give any pricing info without pics of the condition. Don’t get greedy ‘cause old SS and C’man stuff has a distinct/specific market. The DeWalt might be a winner. Don’t have a price, but don’t give it away unless ya just wanna get rid of the stuff.
