I’ve always wanted to get one of these.
I pasted Ripstrate in search the web,& came up with this PDF
This may help. There are some other things listed in the search, but I picked this one. Try searching yourself if you’d like more info.

It appears to do about the same thing as my Board Buddies

Thanks, Dick. Thats EXACTLY what I was looking for. It looks like the guy mounted it correctly, angled slightly towards the fence. While I haven’t tried it yet, it looks like it will be a great accessory. Thanks, also, for the tips on embedding pics. This is such a great site for info. I just hope someday someone asks a question that I actually know the answer to. Oh well…I’ll just absorb, for now. -SST

I also have located a fourth Shopsmith. Being sort of addicted to the old versions of this machine, I’m having a tough time resisting the urge to get it. I’ve developed some rationalization by saying “since they are “five tools in one”, I should have 5 so that I can quell the critics comments about the change over time. I’ll simply set one up in each mode. But then, the other accessories I have will allow me to have about 6 other uses as well, so maybe the actual correct number of machines is eleven. Hmmm…
I’m thinking that would be pushing my luck with my wife, although another tool guy gave my a great comeback line for that. He said, ” when my wife asks, ‘Don’t you have enough tools?’ I respond: ‘don’t you have enough jewelry?’ and the discussion is over.”
I don’t know, I think I’m treading in some treacherous waters, here… although, maybe I could buy her some jewelry first… -SST

A guy can also get by with only a couple pairs of shoes. LOL

I don’t recommend the “don’t you have enough jewelry” line .. unless, of course, you prefer the couch.

shoes.. an interesting subject. I do remember a conversation or two initiated by Rick about the quantity of shoes I had… ... and then he sold his house and we began the packing. He had more footwear than I had!! (Hunting boots, fishing boots, work boots, dress shoes, casual shoes, running shoes, yard shoes, slippers,... and the list goes on.) We’ve never had the conversation again.
