I don’t think anyone can complain about bandsaw footage when you are entertaining us for free. Your videos are well put together and the subject matter is right up my street. Thank you.
Thanks for that. Yes, you're not paying to watch it and I'm not getting paid to make the videos! I can see the bandsaw becoming a bit of an ongoing joke!
Nice to see you using the vertical feed, I never got a "round toit", despite buying the gears some twenty years ago when I first had my 10M shaper!. The joys of high angle shear tool! I'm glad your persevering! Cheers, Matthew
@@thomasstover6272 Nice one! I hope it's in good condition. Mine's had a lot of TLC to get it cutting accurately, including scraping the cross slide ways. I look forward to it appearing in a video!
@@Rustinox Yes, I don't like making permanent mods to my machines if I can avoid it. The Elliott 10M already has the stub shaft hole drilled and a locking screw hole drilled and tapped.
This is a very interesting video and I'm eagerly awaiting "Part 3"! Does your part/vise/shaper knee "dip" down during cuts or is that an optical illusion?
@@bobvines00 I'll try not to disappoint with part 3! No, its not an illusion. The whole shaper rocks as the ram slides forward. The support bar under the table minimises sag on the table alone. I guess I need to jack up the front a tad to minimise it, but as it doesn't seem to affect the accuracy much (1 to 2 thou parallelism on a part), messing with the machine feet hasn't risen to the top of the project queue!

Hi Robert. I enjoyed the video thank you. This project is becoming very interesting. Look forward to the next update. 👍🇳🇱
@@alungiggs Thanks. Still have to edit part 3 but I'm hoping you'll find a couple of things in it a bit different and interesting!
Another video to expand my mind!! Thanks for what you do.
Glad you like them! That's why I did them.

Thanks. I knew the vertical feed would come in handy one day!
Good to see the progress,Robert.See you part 3.Thank you.
Thanks. Part 3 is a bit long but I wanted to squeeze everything into one video. It should be out next week.
The relationship between shaper tools and surface finish is extremely complex and subtle.
Hmm, so I've found!
"A bit marmite" is my new favorite expression!
🤣
Nice video, Robert! I just bought an older 12 in. shaper, and I’m looking forward to getting to know it…

That's good. Shapers are fun.
I wish my shaper had an auto vertical feed. But... I really miss that.
And indeed, a sheertool gives the best results at 15° à 25°.
Can you not modify it to have vertical feed?
As for the shear tool, I've been using the wrong angle for too long!
@@ThePottingShedWorkshop I think it's possible, but I need to drill and tap holes in the machine. I don't want to do that.
