Thanks Greg, I'm just making it up as I go along- I couldn't find any information about making a cut like this with the shaper and it seemed to make sense to have a cut to work to, much like threading to an undercut on the lathe. Would have worked better if the side cuts were wider than the tool used to take the guts out, this would have taken away the need to plunge the round nose tool at the start of each pass.
