I can't help with any leads myself Tom, but I was curious what it was. Looks pretty neat and is rather compact isn't it?
Sorry I can't help with what you're looking for, but the engineer(d) in me always likes seeing gadgets to solve problems
Good luck sir!

Not a shopsmith, but I do have a stand alone rockwell overarm pin router over in my shed if you would be interested.

This is not mine but is the one I have. It is the original overhead pin router made by Bryco for Shopsmith. Not selling though. Sorry.

The seeming fortuitousness of this makes me leery, but look what just popped up in SNS.

Tom wants the accessory that goes on the shopsmith, not the stand alone version.
But he said that depended on price also.

I've seen and used several Shopsmith overarm routers. The only ones I've ever seen have been stand alone, as the power source is the router motor. The motor bracket accepts most router motors. To my knowledge, they've never made a Overarm unit that mounts on the Shopsmith tubes. They only made a router table. I may be wrong, but I'm 99% sure. Food for thought.....

You just posted a picture of one a little earlier in the replies. And that is exactly what I am looking for.

I thought that you meant that the router mounted on the tubes in the horizontal position. It will be very difficult to find one like the one in the picture. And if you do, it won't come cheaply. Shopsmith hasn't manufactured overarm routers for several years, so the numbers of units out there are limited. I wish you the best of luck in finding one.
