- I'm fairly ignorant in the use/purpose of a shaper. I currently have
- a nice router table with a nice PC router in it. IS there any reason
- for me to get a shaper? (There's a good deal on one locally, but if
- I can do all the operations a shaper can on the router, then why
- spend extra money?)
-
- I know the shaper brings more HP to the work, but given slower feed
- rates, couldn't I just do everything on the router? (This is a
- variable speed PC router, so I can slow big bits down.)
