Opensided Shaper or Planer ?
I found item 7537241053 on ebay while looking for a shaper. (I'm not
affiliated with the seller.) The seller says it is a "hydraulic openside shaper". It appears that the head remains stationary while the table moves. Is this actually a shaper or a small planer? I have no way of moving 12,500 pounds so I'll have to pass regardless of price. |

I'd call that a planer. Like you, I don't have room for it but I still want it! its only 45 minutes from me SWMBO would Not Be Amused did you see the frosting on the ways? ....sigh -- Fred R ________________ Drop TROU to email. |

I've been drooling on that listing, too. And I won't be bidding, either.

There was a Rockford hydraulic shaper (28" I think) in seemingly mint
condition on eBay in Michigan a few months ago which went for under $500. But I didn't have the space or the means to lift something that heavy so I had to pass on it too.
