Any ideas on what to use an old ShopSmith frame for?

I have this old Shopsmith that is really only good for parts.

I have tried to give it away but no takers and I really hate junking it.

If anyone wants it or can come up with an idea on how to make it into something useful, let me know.

Only thing I came up with was to make it into a tilting skinning cradle.

The last picture shows one (not mine) with the top rail section tilted up to the vertical position.

So far the best option seems to be — Drill Press.

Shorten the tubes to put the legs close together and tilt the top rail with motor up to vertical and drill some holes.

Been in the same situation mutiple times. Ive held onto large items looking for that one person/anyone who would be grateful to have and use it. Lets stuff sit for years waiting. Now ...i just junk it. Once its gone, out of site out of mind and its a good feeling with no remorse. Not to mention the space it free's up.
Buuut for your sake i hope you find someone who could make use of it.

Well, so far no one on this site has been interested in it. Offered to trade for beer but nada.
