Default Introduction and question

I have recently set up a new woodshop and have a delta 43-355 shaper given to me by a friend. The spindle guard is broken and I am having trouble locating a new one, delta part (43-440). Any thoughts on where to get one or if it is ok to use the shaper without the spindle guard. Up until now I have used a router table but not a shaper.

Thanks

Hi AlanO

Is that the big thick ring

At one time I had a Grizzly shaper and I broke the one I had , so I picked some A325 Flat washers from a fastners outlet and did a bit of welding and made my own...
The A325 washers are bit thicker than most washers and about the same size ..

Just a note you should NOT use the shaper without one...
