Thanks, robo, the ‘smith isn’t going anywhere, the bandsaw is always mounted, and I can setup it up for horizontal boring for making accurate pilot holes, the speed reducer makes it good for driving big forstner bits, and then all of the other things that it can help me with without eating up too much space.You will probably almost never use Mr. Smith again. Haven't turned on one of those yet. PM is generally a step or three above most of what is on the market...

Thanks Bob, as a matter of fact I have 3 discs for mr smith! And a 6” belt sander, so I can sand up a storm! (So to speak)Spike,
If you get into doing segmented turnings, Mr Smith makes a great disk sander to flatten one side before glue up. I have made a larger disk and use the face plate to mount the disk.
