I Have been looking at the incra router lift and the Porter cable 7518
router
the cost of these two items is near the price of a low end shaper what is
the
best buy .

I was looking at the same trade recently -- some of the lower end shapers
also support router bits and so you can get a router / shaper that acts much
like a router table

ok -- so whats the ringer ? -- well a shaper table seems to top out at
10000RPM, while routers operate at twice that speed.

My choice the woodpecker lift and the 7518 router -- nice combo
