The compact ShopSmith 10ER combined a table saw, lathe, drill press, disc sander and horizontal boring machine.

A few years later a group of Yuba employees founded Magna American Corporation and purchased the ShopSmith assets.

When searching for a replacement saw blade John Folkerth, a stockbroker in Dayton, Ohio, came across what was left of the company in Raymond, including the manufacturing equipment and boxes of unfilled orders for parts.

In 2010 the company added the Mark 7 model, which offers a digitally controlled motor with reverse, and a double tilt mechanism.

The attendees of WorkbenchCon are primarily video content creators and the quietness of the Shopsmith dust collector was the unexpected star of the booth.
