newsN60e.18697 I also agree with another poster that for the cost of
router, table,
lift you could buy a low cost shaper with more power, accuracy,
stability, flexibility and an adapter collar for using your existing
router bits. I'd probably consider that before buying another TS
mounted router.

Some search results suggested the slower speed of the router bits in the
shaper did not produce as good as cut as when on a router or shaper bits.
Slower feed rate although I suppose you could swap out pulleys.

Looking at my magazine stack in the 'reading room' I completely forgot that
this month's American Woodworker (#113 March 2005) includes a review of 12
router lifts. Some MORE than the grizzly shaper I pointed out.
