I'm finally in the metal shaper club!
i was told by member and good friend Bob Korves about a metal shaper that was available.
it just so happened that i took Richard King's scraping class in 2013 with the guy that was selling the shaper!
go figure- it's a small world.
after a few digital exchanges i was able to make an appointment this morning to see the little gem!
it was good to see the owner once again, he's a genuinely nice guy.
he has quite a shop, he has some tools and machines, the like most have not laid eyes on
the shop defies description.
He showed me the object of my desire, and after giving her a little oil and a few revolutions by hand
the old girl once again started cycling like she never missed a beat.
may i introduce you to Cherice,
Ammco (delta) 7" metal shaper!
5/16" keyways, with 1/4" holes perforating the box in many locations.
there are many setup options
Cherice came with the original atrtachments:
a rotary table
an indexing center
and a vise, graduated for angle!
.
i'm just starting to oil and play with the little shaper, but i love it already!
