Skil 100 Front Shoe

Just got this front shoe from Pete C. He makes them from scratch. Perfection!

Now that is IMPRESSIVE !    Is there a short rear base available?     I'd like to have a short base Skil 100, but don't want to cut one down.

Not sure what he has. PeteC. posts here all of the time. He is a planer Guru. Kind of like Yoda. Does refurbs and sells parts. You can PM him here on Sways.

Thank you Roger, glad you like the shoe.

     Howzit Mr Clean, I have come to the conclusion we have some real geniuses and great craftsmen also. It seems that if there is a problem or a real puzzler question some member will figure out how to take care of the problem. Aloha,Kokua

those are nice shoes, but if you wear them you can still drip resin on your toes!

Pete, do you refurb 676s too?  I have one circa 1956, don’t want it pretty just mechanically checked out.

 

I rebuilt a 676 and it was about the same as a Type one model100. I think the base had less ribs in it. Possibly SKil just changed the model numbers. Here is a pic of my little cut down Skil with it’s new shoe. Fit like a glove.
