No.going.back - crummy iPad won’t let me type your handle correctly! Just got back into town after long winter break. I might come down your way to look at the shaper in a few days. Be fun to meet up and possibly go look at the beast.
Hawaii Railway Society on Oahu as two shapers, an Ammaco 7” and a very large 17” something or other that came out of one of the old Plantation Sugar Mills. Both out of commission and covered with dust and tarps. I didn’t have time to get either running, but it did pique my interest in shapers. This one looks nice and tight. Price isn’t to bad. So maybe I’ll try the owners contact in the ad and see what he or she has to say. Let you know.
Then again, if I manage to wait a few days until the fever breaks...
