Project Information
Shaper tooling has a lot of sharp edges and some of it can be quite heavy. A friend of mine told me how he made carriers for his shaper tooling. Sounded like a great idea. I cut up a piece of 1/2 inch plywood and put holes in the middle for 1 1/8 inch dowels of appropriate length and grabbed some drawer handle bulk packs from the big orange box. Rounded the corners with a router jig.
The tooling falls in roughly three different sizes, so I standardized on 3 basic sizes. Most of my tooling has a 30mm bore with a couple that have 1 1/4 inch bores, so 1 1/8 dowling works for both. Sometimes, I need to remove some of the knives, so I epoxied some magnets that hold the loose parts. Plastic feet to keep the screw heads for the handles from scratching things.
Finished with shellac.
