This is a Heston & Anderson benchtop shaper in great condition with the original factory box full of goodies plus 3 Delta Specialty shaper heads.

As I post this, it is the only H & A benchtop Shaper on this board, Model 18 Serial #122. I believe the wood trim around the table is original, and I cannot believe how quiet this runs – it is not as loud as my Makita cordless drill, no vibration and it really cranks. Came with a great user-made stand (not pictured) which gets if off the bench.

Just picked this up from the widow of an amateur woodworker who did some really fine work. I’m pretty happy with it – she let me set the price for it, which I did fairly, so it wasn’t a great bargain.
