I found item 7537241053 on ebay while looking for a shaper. (I'm not affiliated with the seller.) The seller says it is a "hydraulic openside shaper". It appears that the head remains stationary while the table moves. Is this actually a shaper or a small planer? I have no way of moving 12,500 pounds so I'll have to pass regardless of price.
Opensided Shaper or Planer ?

There was a Rockford hydraulic shaper (28" I think) in seemingly mint condition on eBay in Michigan a few months ago which went for under $500. But I didn't have the space or the means to lift something that heavy so I had to pass on it too.
Works out to 4 cents a pound!
