Actually, you should have BOTH spindles. The 1.25" is a standard U.S. size and the 30mm
is a standard Euro (metric) size. Most U.S. made cutters will only be offered in 1.25"
or 3/4" whereas the Euro tooling will be 20 or 30mm. Having a 1.25" and a 30mm will
give you the most flexibility.

This is a sort of a survey. When I ordered my BF6-31, I never gave too
much thought to the shaper function. I'd never used a shaper and have
a full shelf of router tooling. So I ordered the router spindle and
got a shaper spindle essentially as an afterthought. I've since
ordered the rebate head - the Felder February special - and found that
it was only supplied in 30 MM. My shaper spindle is 1.25".
Do you think that I should swap in my 1.25" spindle for a 30 MM. Do
you think it is worthwhile for the European tooling available or should
I stick with the 1.25? Felder has been nice enough to say that they
will exchange spindles for me at no charge, so cost is not a prime
consideration.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
