You're Ready To Create Your First Project

Congratulations!

In the 10-part Getting Started With Your Shopsmith email series you recently completed, you were probably surprised when we showed you how easy it really is to work with the 7 different tool operations offered by the Shopsmith MARK 7.

You may be thinking that you've only made some very basic cuts. However, we used ONLY the same simple operations we showed you in the email series to build an amazing vintage steam locomotive that any child or grandchild will cherish for a lifetime. CLICK HERE to view a series of 7 brief video clips that will show you how we built our locomotive.

YOU CAN DO IT! Remember, even the most complex project is nothing more than a series of smaller, simple component projects. Always keep that in mind as you go step-by-simple-step through building your own projects, and enjoy every step along the way!
