So, some time ago @northwest rang me and asked me to come down as he’d got something for me. That something turned out to be a box of assorted parts that used to be a klopp shaper……
I finally decided I could really do with a shaper running so this week I’ve been trying to identify all manner of bits and pieces and build something useable. This was not helped by the fact that I can find precisely two 250s online , and neither are like mine, mine having a 2 piece base and top rather than the complete cast unit of others.
This, coupled with the use of imperial fasteners on a German machine make me think it’s an early model. Besides the nicely cast “klopp” on the side, there’s no other badges, plates or numbers that I can find. In any case, have some pictures. Excuse the mess, I do need a clean out
