Clapper Assembly for Gingery Shaper

I have completed the clapper assembly for the Gingery shaper as I follow book 3 in the series. The clapper box is where the clapper block mounts. The clapper block is where the tool post mounts. This assembly is right up there with the bull wheel and yoke relative to interesting features of the shaper.

The clapper box has a small angle adjustment to give the cutting tool clearance when cutting vertically along an angled plane relative to the work table. Finally, the clapper assembly mounts on the downfeed. It provides the degree of freedom for the cutting tool to swing away from the workpiece as the ram is retracted.

Check out part 9 if you want the details on scraping in these aluminum parts for a good mating fit: https://youtu.be/kINjfcl3GAw
