Perfect part for a shaper. Make em fast and easy on just about any old
shaper.


I've never used a shaper; does one expect distortion at the start of the cut?


If its fastened down...virtually zero distortion unless the part is
very thin walled. Cut once across..you can nearly see yourself in the
finish. While slow..they really..really can do marvelous work.

On small parts..they are surprisingly fast..slower than a mill...but
not that much slower.
