...of which I only have a shaper(Grizzly 1035)...gave my router to my SIL... (hardly used it anyway)
I'm doing a half-round hallway table w/ Leopardwood top. I wanna put an 1/2" round edge on the top(same edge thats on a drop leaf), but after using scraps from the top, I'm not suer I wanna risk it freehand. the wood machines well enough, but getting it perfect start-finish is another thing. I have limited practice doing freehand on the shaper, and don't wanna waste this top.. I'm askin' if getting a router(which I really need anyway)and doing the edge that way is less risky( altho I have more time put in on a shaper than with a router...)... too close to bein' done to have to glue up another high dollar top if I mess this one up....
what say ye, Men?
