Talking Shapers

Greetings chaps I have a shaper an unmarked beast about 14 inch stroke. Mine lay in a friends workshop which is his living so it was too slow and it lay unused for eight years. I got it for 250 Ossie dollars. It now resides in a ex Railways Workshop with an Asquith Radial, Parkson 1A Mill, and a New Visby Lathe. This is a locally made beast with a top speed of 2000 revs and 3 inch bore. and about 4 foot between centers. I also share the available space with two Broad Gauge locomotives. So there is usually plenty of work
Yours from down under
