Re: Shaper is now.......
What does that mean other than the prices are likely to increase?

"After more than 10 years at their current pricing, SawStop will increase prices on the majority of their saws, options, and accessories on February 1st."
Saw stop is part of this same group.

Re: Shaper is now.......
I think it will be good for Shaper Origin to have the financial backing of ToolTechnic and really don't expect the price to change any as it is already at high end pricing.
