You blokes are amazing. Yet again I am humbled.
My sincere thanks at having a crack, seriously.
I asked the missus but she is right, we have a couple of important purchases coming up like water storage etc. and I just couldn't argue with the logic.
Thanks again, I more than appreciate it.

What exactly is this? I'm lost. (A shaper of some sort at one end... )

A good sized travelling head shaper with two slotted tables.
The entire shaper head moves on the doveltail slide you can see below it and the work tables stay still.
Looks like you could some big areas on this one!
That's the same as mine Ray but with all the bits on it that are missing off mine :((

Unfortunately the museum operator has put himself on a self imposed ban** for the time being. My list of projects now extends to 2 lifetimes and every year I seem to have less free time. Next project is to build a large shed extension so I can retrieve the various machines I have stored and bring home the stationary engines I have stored on another farm.
