Freehand shaping is shaping without using the fence.
A rub collar is used to control the depth of cut and
support the workpiece while cutting. A piece of wood is
clamped to the table to be used as a "starting block." The
block supports the workpiece while you slowly pivot the
workpiece into the cutter at the beginning of the cut (see
=`^li\+*). It is important to never start cutting at the
corner of workpiece or kickback may occur—even with the
support of a starting block.

(% DISCONNECT SHAPER FROM POWER!
)% Remove the fence assembly from the shaper.
*% Clamp the starting block to the table in a position
that allows you to feed the workpiece into and
against the rotation of the cutter (see =`^li\+*).
+% Install the cutter so it will cut in the correct
direction, and adjust the spindle height.
,% Use a workpiece holding jig to guide the workpiece
and protect your hands (see the example in =`^li\
++). Read the tips on the next page when building a
workpiece holding jig.
-% Place the workpiece/jig against the starting block.
.% Slowly pivot and feed the workpiece into the cutter.
Avoid starting the cut on the corner of the workpiece
as kickback could occur. Once the cut is started, the
workpiece should be pulled away from the starting
block.
