drzaius Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 I was going to say lucky you, but I don't think luck has a lot to do with it. I've never used one, but they are reportedly the bee's knees. And not easy to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 I have been thinking about making Phillip Morley's mortiser. It looks like a like a good design and easy to use. You can get it in flat pak and do just the assemble or buy the plans which is a lot cheaper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom King Posted December 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 I didn't know what that was, so I looked it up. I don't have a place for loose tenons in my work. I have two mortising machines, but they're too much trouble to set up for a small number of mortises. Usually, if I have just a few, I'll just chop them by hand. I mostly wanted this thing because I didn't have one, but I'm sure I'll find a use for it. I recently bought the small Makita router kit, with plunge base, so think that will come in handy with this, and also have a Microfence coming to fit that little router.

bleedinblue Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 Those are supposed to be fantastic. No telling what that would have sold for on Ebay. A lot more than $25, I'd bet my lunch on it. Edit to add photo...case and point, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark J Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 I bought one of these at an estate sale last sumer. I think I paid $20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
