Ran across an ad for a Mark 1 14″ band saw and 6″ jointer. Never heard of the make, and searches turned up a few ‘Marvel Mark 1″ saws, but they were all big saws. Just curious…..

I think it might be accessories for the Shopsmith. Seems to me Mark 1 has something to do with Shopsmith name.

Mark 1 was a Taiwan made machinery brand that was imported and sold in your area by Tool Town. They were later rebranded Foremost and sold up until about 2 years ago. They are quite well made, the bandsaw and jointer were particularly nice. My Dad got my jointer when I got the DJ-20 and a friend of mine got the bandsaw when I didn't have room for 3.

Thanks, Don. Looks like someone could get a good deal on those two machines. forestgirl -- you can take the girl out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the girl ;-)
