small shop built shaper. - sasquatch - 11-14-2012

If you haven't seen these videos of a homeshop built small shaper it is worth Watching.
A very nice piece of workmanship, by a (so Far) unknown builder.

Google - Tubal Cain shaper -

Neat machine, I like the easily adjustable table travel.

watching a shaper sure is hypnotic!
The work put into that little guy is phenomenal

As stated in the video the only markings found were the initials "G K" no date, no name nothing else.

Sad that the builder did not stamp his name and date etc.

I always stress , if you build something , include that info. Always great for a future owner to discover that information.
