  • Nice to have the toys lol.

  • RESPECT!

    

  • 2:26 it moved, its got to be off by a small amount i would make it tighter and force it in so it has pressure on it already. great vid.

  • he uses a long two handed Japanese chisel, does anyone knows the name of this chisel and, maybe, where I can get one in Europe? THX...

  • Thanks for showing us how to use our new Saw Mortiser

  • You can cut a lot of mortises with a drill and a chisel. If you're not in a hurry, it can even be preferable. I've used a DeWalt or Milwaukee D-handled 1/2 drill many times, and even a Millers-Falls human-powered boring machine on occasion. I have to say, if you like the quiet and the rhythm of hand-work mixed with conversation on a pleasant site, you can't beat the Millers-Falls. OTOH, if you're trying to make a living, speed is essential.

  • nice demo

  • It's called a "Chain mortiser". Google it, you'll find lots of vendors.

  • Nice, How do you like the Makita 7104 ? I am looking at picking on up but am torn between that and the Mafell. The clamp on the Mafell looks beefy but I am thinking the Makita will suite my needs (building our house and cabins).
