After making a video overview from the first month or so of using it, I thought it might be helpful to post a video detailing what I like (and don't like) about it one year later.

I use the Shaper Origin on most every project and continue to find new, interesting uses for it. Along with new software updates and ease of use, it's hard to think of a better option if you don't have room for a dedicated CNC in the shop.

Is it essential for the shop? No. But neither is a Sawstop, and I think there are things that are worth the investment. To me, the Shaper Origin is one of those worthwhile investments.
