I do both and as i have been getting older, SHHHHH don't tell anyone I also
have been leaning more to furniture, but that would be no reason to get rid
of the machine, just some of the knives you have

Even with my shaper i never buy ready made knives of standard shapes, I have
always designed my own and had them ground I still get them not far from
you, a company called CAYCE just outside of baltimore cost for 5/16"
corrugated back knives are 20.00 per inch.

I have some light blades that i grind myself for short runs,
I use only one knife in the head and a almost balancer in the other slot.

The only thing I do not like about the W&H and a lot of other standard knife
machines is the limit on the depth of cut,
I tend to like a moulding to stand out as a moulding not a few scratches on
the wood.

No I'm not interested, just curious as to why you are selling it.

I've been moving from architectural woodworking towards furniture
making and, while the WH is a fantastic machine, I can't afford to
keep it around as sculpture.

I figured I'd put this equipment up on the NG first, before listing it
with my suppliers. Once this stuff gets on their list is won't last a
week.
