    It Worked Well for Us for 30 years, ( at least ) ! January 22, 2007

    First of all, I don't like set screws on much of anything! However, this particular item did serve my father and myself well in his custom cabinet business for over 30 years. We used it for decorative face plates on bookcases, fluted pilasters on fireplace mantles, fluted pilasters for large exterior scroll top headed entry door frames with transom light panels on either side, and many other uses. The only real problem I ever encountered with this product was the pitch and resin build-up within the cutter (knives) insertion slots. That was then and now that lumber is even greener when sold on the market, the problem can only be worse. Yet, I don't fault the tool as this is inherent with woodworking. In other words, it goes with the territory and should be expected no matter whose equivalent product you use. Periodically, depending on usage, the head will need cleaning to remove the build-up. I must admit that mine has sentimental value to me as my father passed away in 1991 and left all of his tools to me. He was very protective of this item in particular. There has to be a way to utilize hex head bolts in place of the allenheads as long as their symmetry doesnt upset the rotation balance at such high speeds (3500-5500 rpm). I only wish Sears would sell me the spacer washer by itself as mine is MIA!

    tear-out January 01, 2007

    As a Builder/Remodeler I do a lot of custom cabinet work so I decided to try this moulder head on my big Craftsman table saw. The start of cuts is OK but the end always results in tear-out. I did hone the edges on the tounge and groove set I tried first but it still tore out regardless of the speed of the cut. If you're building something you can hide the tear-out on OK, otherwise forget this saw attachment. I also agree with other reviews regarding the set screws on the moulder attachments - they are easy to mess up.

    I've had my table saw shaper for at least 15 years. The previous post said he hadn't even tried his but rated it lame anyway. I think the tool is great. For me it only gets used 3 or 4 times a year, but it makes a great cut. If you're going across endgrain without a push block then yes you may blowout your vg fir. As with any shaper you have to use the right depth of cut and speed to push. Material choice is important, along with trying to push it through the right direction, with the grain tearing out towards the surface to be cut, instead of into the body of the piece. Poplar, cherry good. Birch, maple bad. Standard woodworking procedures. It offers the ability to make mouldings and trim pieces without buying and setting up a full size shaper. I've even used obscure knives to cut my own knives from. Unfortunately, I've found the knives to be scattered throughout the craftsman website. It would be nice if I could find all of them together. It has a few times saved me when there were no easy answers.

    The most critical safety related component is of the lowest quality. I can not safely assemble the cutters to the head with the set screws provided. The allen wrench provided is fine, but the set screw hex sockets are so poor, the wrench slips when pressure is applied. The set screws are a custom design, and are not available as replacement parts. While I rated the product poor in all categories, I have not had a chance to use the product, so I really can't speak to the value, durability, or reliability.
