Hi all,
I've been looking at used shapers to add to my shop. This would be for personal use and I would adding a power feeder. Alot of the use would be for T&G paneling, casing and base molding that will be used in the shop and basement remodeling projects. I have ran across some shapers that I think would do the job and would like some feedback. Delta 43-375 2hp, PM #24, 2hp and a G5912Z. The Griz for sure has what seems to be the most up to date options but I�m alittle taken back by the 5hp motor only having 14amps. Whats up with that??? Didn�t think that was really possible. Makes me wonder about the rest of the machine. If anyone has any experience with any of the Shapers I�d surely like any and all feedback I can get. I have read quite a bit about the PM 27�s but have no info on the PM24 and can�t find out much about them. Will a 2hp shaper, even the older ones with real HP ratings work for what I�m looking to do? Thanks
