    POSITION OF COLLARS When shaping with collars, the collar must have suffi- cient bearing surface, as shown in Figure 35. Also the work must be fairly heavy relative to the cut being made. Under no circumstances should a short, light workpiece be shaped against the collars, as shown in Figure 36.

    Fasten the new workpiece (C) on the jig (A) with the clamp (D) and push the assembly past the cutter. FEEDING STOCK Stock feeders are available from Powermatic. These units mount to the shaper table, and will help ensure smooth, consistent feed of material, as well as keep hands safely away from the cutterhead.
