SHAPER
The shaper is also referred to as a spindle or moulder. "Getting the most out of your shaper" is published as a service to power tool users. Different sizes, models and makes of machines vary in their performance, features and ease of operation. The author and editor have endeared to make the information contained in this manual as general as possible.
Shapers are available in a number of sizes and designs. Selecting the proper machine for your requirements depends upon the ultimate use you will make of it. You should carefully evaluate and investigate the capacity of the machine to meet your needs. For example, how much use will the machine have to sustain? Are you buying it for home workshop with seldom or occasional use, or is it to be used for heavy industrial production and frequent use? Balancing your budget with your needs is yet another consideration. For your convenience we have included a check list of things to look for when buying a shaper in the last chapter of this book.
For clarity, guards and other safety devices have been removed from illustrations depicting procedures described by the text. To avoid injury the operator should insure that the guards and other safety devices are in place and properly operating before using the spindle.
Originally published in 1936, this manual has been reprinted many times and has been kept up to date by the addition of the latest woodworking techniques and suggestions.
