You really need to figure out the audio better! Cant watch because cant hear or understand!

great session, thank you!!!!!

Excellent! I wish I lived closer to KC I would join your Guild in a heartbeat! Thank you for putting online!!!!

Please tell me your middle initial is “N”.

Can’t hear you.

Great presentation. I also do intarsia. I live in southern Missouri. There aren't that many doing intarsia in this area infact I don't know anyone doing it here.

Hard to hear quests.

Excellent presentation David, Thank you

Could you post the RUclips address for the series on building the desk?

Audio level is low. Have my speakers up all the way and still hard to hear. Other than that, good podcast.

The microphone for that guy in the middle seems to cut out.

What a beautiful project! Thanks for sharing

I really miss the Guild, I wish there was one like the Guild here in Joplin. It would be good to start one here in Joplin. Thank you for the good years when I was a member.

Great interview! Loved hearing more about Dave. What a great man. You both did a wonderful job on the podcast. CH

Great podcast and great to hear more of your story Kenan. And I agree Dave Kraatz is the best! Nice job Kevin and Kenan!

Graphic animation during intro has "Woodwokers Guild."

Good stuff! Thanks Kevin and Norm!

Thanks everyone for your efforts.

Really enjoyed this one! Nice work, great to know more about your story Norm.

Great job to both of you. Thanks Kevin for putting this together - and Craig it was nice to hear about your background. Well done. And I agree Marvel, I was an avid collector when I was a teenager!

Craig's finishing classes are excellent. I highly recommend them. I've been doing woodworking for 60 years and I learned a bunch. Thank you, Kevin for interviewing him, Russ A

Dear Rob, thank you Sir for this splendid Review/Overview! Kindest regards from Germany. ...got a shaper in my garage and trying to soak up all the info I can get, to get a better view of what it all can do. :)

Shop will not be open till Saturday afternoon due to Ben Hobbs class.

hi

@Jim Drummond" - "How, in your opinion, does this comapare to Shopbot Handibot?" - It looks like the Shopbot is a miniature gantry system. I have no experience with the Shopbot product.

@Russ Amos - "Can you cut dovetails?" Yes, I can cut dovetails. My preferred method is with a nice, fine tooth dovetail saw and well sharpened chisels... While it is possible to cut dovetails with the Shaper Origin it is not something it would be efficient at doing. Because the dovetail bit undercuts, you have the potential for ruining a workpiece if the bit is retracted too soon and pulled through. There is no way to turn-off the safety feature of the SO that does this. That said, if you go to the Shaper Origin RUclips channel, you can see a few demonstrations and on the ShaperHub there are instructions for doing the work and creating the necessary CAD files.

@Kevin Thomas - "why isn't it green then?" -- Festool does not own Shaper Tools, Inc. But both companies are owned by the parent company, TTS Tooltechnic Systems AG & Co. They also own Sawstop.

@Matt A "Does each person need to purchase their own bits?" Yes, and you would also need to purchase your own Shaper Origin too... ;) This is my unit, the KCWG does not own or plan to purchase one. They would not stand up to the abuse that happens in a shared shop space. You tend to take better care of tools when its your own money on the table.

@Mark Crowley - "Is the free for hobbyist version of Fusion 360 adequate?" Yes, absolutely. You will need to add the Shaper Plug-in from the Autodesk/Fusion library web page.

@Kevin Thomas -- "What is the name of the double stick tape and where is it available?" The brand name is "Intertape" and the model number is 591. It can be found in various widths on Amazon and other locations.

@Dave Rukavina -- "Do you have or use more than the three bits that come with?" -- Yes. They (Shaper) supply a 1/4" & 1/8" upcut spiral and a 20* engraving bit all 1/4" shank. I've added a 1/8" and 8mm collet. The 1/8" collet in particular is handy because I can use a much wider array of small bits. We will be adding a list of Amazon links either to this page or to the guild page listing a few of the bits I've picked up to try. Most are relatively inexpensive and if you pay attention to feed and speed they last.
