The "new" Casadei machines are close enough to pick up. In particular the F25 tilting shaper currently at $4K. Anyone have experience with the brand and if it is worth pursuing even without a sliding table? Use scenario small shop with furniture making dreams. (Have an old Delta used twice mainly due to the guard being such a pain and having a first piece explode placing it on my most feared machine list. Not worth much to sell and begs to be converted into a router table...too many ideas.) Would add an Aigner guard to any new machine and dream of the tilt up version on the Felder Profil 45 but that's dreaming money.
