We have a donated Cincinnati 12" mechanical shaper in the machine shop portion of our blacksmith shop at the Nowthen Historical Power Association grounds. It sat there for several years, but this weekend we got it going and all the functions work. But the Tool holder is missing, so we can't throw any chips on the floor.
If anybody has such a tool holder or knows where I might get one, please let me know. I say it's a 12 inch model because that's the size of the table.


I'm guessing that it looks like a large lantern type tool holder that you'd find on a lathe. I can't find any model number on the machine. The hole in the clapper box is about 1.383" diameter at the outboard end, and seems to taper to about 1.372 at the inboard end. The clapper box is 1.235 thick.


Any leads would sure be appreciated.

Pete..Ebay for little dollars though Ive made a bunch of my own tool
holders for shapers over the years

Got a photo or a link to that particular shaper model? Might be able
to direct you to sourcing.
