And if they are would you please send me a copy of the shaper one? My set
went to Australia a few years back with another member of the castinghobby
email list . I wonder how many times they've circled the continent , they
were supposed to be shared with all the hobby casters there .


Will do, Terry.


And I need a shaper often enough to build one . Shaving keyways manually
on the lathe or mill ain't much fun .


Why not? Yeah, setup might be a bear, but the cutting should be a
straightforward piece of cake.
