Shaper Origin + Workstation + Plate + BenchPilot Kit

Shaper Origin + Workstation + Plate + BenchPilot Kit

Shaper Origin comes with everything you need to get cutting right out of the box, combined with BenchPilot for hands-free cutting so you can focus on other tasks at hand.

Clip Origin into BenchPilot and let it drive Origin from point A to point B while Origin continues to handle the small precision movements. Think of it as an autopilot for Origin.

Now add the Workstation and streamline your workflow, and expand Origin’s abilities by offering rapid, repeatable, and precise fixturing of a wide range of stock configurations, featuring a reusable ShaperTape field, an easily adjustable shelf for small or difficult-to-fixature workpieces, indexing pins for easy alignment and registration, and an angled fence for aligning stock from 0 to 45 degrees. These features significantly reduce setup time and make it easier than ever to get cutting quickly.

Plate is a universal template designed to install a wide range of hardware, inlay bow ties, round corners, route system 32 holes, and much more.

Precise Joinery

Combine Origin with Shaper Workstation to easily and precisely cut mortise and tenons, box joints, and other custom joinery.
