Thanks Jack!!

 

You're welcome bob. Thanks for joining the forum, we all hope you'll stay around and become an active participant!

 

Thanks, Jack. Just found this shaper but no book and no experience using one. This should give me an idea of what to do or what to ask.

 

rock well shaper

Hi Jack thank you for posting that shaper manual as I all so have that model but did not have a Manual . kind regards carl

 

You Rock Jack. My shaper only costs $25 and they game me what looks like a 1.5HP Tablesaw motor that lines right up with the mounting plate. I guess I will only be able to feed one direction though which I guess isn't the end of the world.

 

Great find , just what I was looking for. I hope to find a safety guard II which is illustrated in the manual.
