Panel Raising Carbide Tipped Shaper Cutter (Cat.# 43-949)
Superior Craftmanship – Made in Japan
This study covers the world outlook for woodworking shapers and profilers across more than 200 countries. For each year reported, estimates are given for the latent demand, or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.), for the country in question (in millions of U.S. dollars), the percent share the country is of the region and of the globe. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a country vis-à-vis others. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each country and across countries, latent demand estimates are created. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved.
From the Manufacturer
Freud’s bushings are manufactured to the highest precision to insure a cut equal to that of the cutter without the bushing.
There are few better ways to cut decorative mouldings and joinery than with the shaper, and woodworkers of all ability should welcome this exhaustive coverage of the shapter’s skill. What a shaper does, and how it does it, is just the beginning. Hundreds of techniques are carefully explained in step-by-step, photo-filled detail. Valuable checklists and charts cover common trouble areas, maintenance and tune-up, and getting the best possible cut. There’s even a checklist for buying the right shaper and the essential options for the best price.

The shaper is a stationary woodworking machine used to produce decorative mouldings, edges, and joinery. Every production shop has always had a shaper, but now advanced home woodworkers are increasingly likely to own one of these versatile machines because they are affordable and because they greatly expand the capability of a shop. A shaper, however, is one of the trickiest woodworking machines to operate properly and safely. This handbook explains hundreds of shaper techniques and illustrates each with drawings and photos. Advice is offered about what to look for when buying a shaper, and maintenance, troubleshooting, and tune-up are also covered.
