Just acquired an Alba4S shaper 18" stroke .
I'm looking for armstrong type tool holders ,preferably the T series
with no back rake .
A universal type would also be nice to have .
The shank size I need is 5/8 thicknes.
Ive looked on Ebay and thos on there are either too large in the shank
or are for planers.

Knowing some of you blokes on this forum are masters at finding stuff ,I
thought I would put out the word.

I also need a shaper vice , with jaws around 9" wide , but the cost of
shipping from the US would be deadly me thinks.

Ill check stock, but you can make a tool holder..well..three of them
easily enough, to hold a decent HSS 1/2" or 3/8"

Right, center and Left. Make 3 the same, then heat with a torch and
with a long bar..bend em to the right and to the left.

Ive got a vise to fit..but Im afraid it would be deadly indeed shipping
it to Oz.

Thats a very nice shaper btw. Got any photos?

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
