When it comes to the shaper, Joe Calhoon has a bag of tricks that seems bottomless. Equally impressive is his willingness to share that knowledge with those of us that are, by comparison, fumbling in the dark.
If you haven¡¯t seen Joe¡¯s shop, it is worth the trip to Ouray, Colorado. Just the trip to Ouray is worth the trip. It is a truly stunning place in the mountains. Even better is to take one of the Alpine shaper classes hosted by Joe Calhoon with Greg from Rangate. You can learn some of Joe¡¯s tricks first hand while discovering how to build Tilt & Turn Windows and Lift & Slide Doors.
Thanks Joe, for the tip on the rosette manufacturing. I wouldn¡¯t have thought of that. Seems pretty simple now.

I used it a while back to produce 120 large roset blocks. My lathe is weak and does not do well with this cutter.
