    Default Small metal shaper

    Nearly everyone wishes they had a small shaper to do that particular job, but don't have the room. Well your wish has been granted, someone has come up with a SMALL benchtop motorised shaper.

    The smallness of the plans is not a problem. Scale it up to 1:9 or 1:6 or 1:3.

    You'll need to bring one of your lathes down with you next time to make room for it
