Comments:

I purchased this inexpensive motorized shaper to build some kitchen cabinets in the late 60's. It is similar to a router table with a 1/2" spindle. The integral motorized spindle is only a 1 HP unit, but it does have a nice cast iron table and fence. It takes 1/2" 3 wing shaper cutters which are not common today, but these were plentiful and inexpensive when I purchased the machine.
