                       SHOPSMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal and
   recurring adjustments) have been made as of July 5, 1997 and June 29, 1996
   to present the financial statements fairly.  However, the results of
   operations for the three months then ended are not necessarily indicative of
   results for the fiscal year.  The financial statements and notes are
   presented as permitted by Form 10-Q, and do not contain certain informa-
   tion included in the annual financial statements.  The financial statements
   accompanying this report should be read in conjunction with the financial
   statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report to Shareholders
   for the year ended April 5, 1997.

2. The provision for income taxes is as follows:

                                             Three Months Ended
                                        July 5, 1997   June 29, 1996
           Income Before income taxes   $    128,521   $     127,345

           Provision at statutory rate
              of 34%                          44,000          44,000

           Change in valuation allowance     (44,000)        (44,000)

              Net                                  -               -

   The change in the valuation allowance for all the periods presented
   represents the realization of tax benefits of temporary differences which
   reversed during the respective periods.

3. The Company's commercial lending bank has orally committed to renew the
   revolving credit facility through June 30, 1999.  The maximum available
   borrowing will be $500,000 or 40% of eligible inventory, whichever is less.
   Interest will be charged at the bank's prime rate.  The outstanding
   principal will be due upon demand.  The agreement will require compliance
   with certain minimum net worth, working capital, financial leverage and
   other miscellaneous covenants.  Substantially all tangible assets will be
   pledged as collateral. No amounts were outstanding under this arrangement at
   July 5, 1997.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
               Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Net sales in the quarter ended July 5, 1997 were $3,718,000, up 10.1% from the
$3,376,000 realized in the same quarter last year.  Increases in advertising
and other promotion efforts in the Company's demonstration sales channel were
responsible for the increased net sales.  This increased effort also caused
selling and administrative costs to rise by 14.4% from $1,773,000 or 52.5% of
net sales in the first quarter last year to $2,029,000 or 54.6% of net sales in
the same period this year.

     The increased selling efforts shifted a larger proportion of net sales
toward the demonstration sales channel which produces higher gross margins
than some of the Company's other selling channels.  Gross margins, as a result
of this and some sales price adjustments, increased to 57.1% of net sales in
the first quarter of the current year compared to 55.7% in the same period last
year. Costs of the increased selling efforts discussed above, however, exceeded
the effect of the sales and margin rate increases. Favorable adjustments for
insurance recoveries and litigation reserves partly offset the selling cost
increases.

No provision for income taxes was reflected on the Company's pre-tax income as
the expense at the statutory rate has been offset by the reduction in
previously established valuation reserves related to deferred income tax
amounts, including tax loss carryforwards, pursuant to SFAS 109.

Net income of $129,000 or $.05 per share was recognized in the quarter ended
July 5, 1997 as compared to $127,000, also $.05 per share, in the same period
last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operations used $1,367,000 of cash in the three months ended July 5, 1997
primarily to finance the normal spring/summer seasonal reduction of accounts
payable and other liabilities. Cash was also needed to finance certain costs,
some of which are paid in advance, of promotions to support the upcoming state
fair selling season and for increases in other current assets.  $988,000 of
cash was used in the first quarter of last year for similar purposes.

Property additions, principally for a more cost effective and capable telephone
system, were $82,000 for the first quarter of the current fiscal year compared
to $36,000 in the same period last year.  The normal seasonal liquidation of
short-term investments provided $492,000 of cash in the first quarter this year
and $742,000 in the first quarter last year.

Shopsmith's debt to equity ratio improved to 0.48 at July 5, 1997 from 0.81 at
April 5, 1997 and 1.26 at June 29, 1996. The current ratio was also enhanced
during the current first quarter to 2.46 at July 5, 1997 from 1.86 at April 5,
1997 and 1.30 at June 29, 1996.  The Company had $2,610,000 in working capital
at July 5, 1997 compared to $2,507,000 at April 5, 1997 and $729,000 at June
29, 1996.  The improvements in these leverage and liquidity metrics were the
result of profitability in recent fiscal periods and of the use of current
assets to liquidate current liabilities.

The Company's bank has orally committed to provide a revolving credit agreement
to expire on June 30, 1999 which makes available borrowings of up to $500,000
or 40% of eligible inventory, whichever is less.  For a discussion of this
facility, reference is made to Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included herein.  No amounts were outstanding under the agreement at July 5,
1997.  Management believes financial resources will be adequate to meet
operating needs.

Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk.
        Not applicable.
