While I own a Delta mortise machine, I don't use it with the frequency needed to maintain a comfort level. I find reviewing this video from time to time to be of great help. Chris' instructions are, as usual, simple and easy to follow.
Thank you, Mr. Marshall. Very seldom have I seen a more informative AND entertaining video on TH-cam. Your straightforward and coherent presentation of this information was a rare pleasure to see and hear. I learned something new today. Again, thank you.
I find every thing about you video very professional. Can't under stand anyone giving you a negative review. I just bought a Powermatic mortise machine #pm701 and I'm glad I watched. I avoided many mistakes. Thanks again!
Thank you so much, I picked up a very reasonably priced one from a lady who had not the first idea about the machine. Neither did I. Watching your video which is informative and a game changer. Loved going from clueless to informed.Well done!
Very good video, was of great help to me. I had my first experience today on a mortising machine which I recently purchased. Three mortising chisels were supplied with the machine. The end of the auger bit is larger than the square chisel, so the auger bit can't retract. So I didn't have allow for a spacer. I applied the information from your video to set up the cutting, and am glad to say that it turned out perfectly. A nice straight square cut. Thanks for your help.
he reason that the manual recommends fitting the chisel with the opening to the side is because it is easier for the bit to eject the chips into the mortise thus reducing build-up of friction and heat in the bit and protecting the temper in the steel.
thank you for your help i have just set up my self my new workshop and i have just went out and got my self a new mortise machine i have evray machine now your video is good
very informative video sir, I recently bought a jet jbm 5 mortiser machine. I want to know what is the size and length of the bit that you're using? thank you
Thanks for this. I just set up my ShopFox and heard some squealing from the bit. Wasn't sure if that was normal and found this video. It's normal, although I don't remember the larger floor model that I used a while back doing this. Do you find that you need a longer lead on the bit for harder woods? I did a test on some cherry and it seemed to work better that way.
thanks... I came to find out what mortising is, because I found that "high speed mortising bits" at Harbor Freight make amazing, budgetary spiral endmills for 3 for $15 and they don't even dull really fast. I use them in a drill press that I do a little milling with using a cross-vise. I make milled flats and channels therein just like if I had an expensive endmill and you get three sizes. I expected the big one to dull after one project but it's still going strong after several. You could have sold it to me as a cobalt steel bit and I'd be none the wiser.
mindfreak001009 The Router makes a round hole at the end while a mortising machine is square consistently. You can use a dado blade and it makes a round hole going up at the end. I am going to use the router then use the Mortising machine to make the ends square.
0:21 Strictly speaking, I don't think that's true as they can cut round holes too (when used without the chisel) and any other shape that mortising chisels come in.
CaptainFuture, I take issue with your comment about his tightening the chuck at every point to be "bullshit." One, that is how I have always tightened bits and consider it good practice. That could be labeled as "bullshit" too. Riddle me this: If I go to tighten a bit on my drill press or mortiser and torque one "access" point as hard as I can, why is it that I can easily tighten the bit further when I move to the next "access point"? Also, on my drill press chuck, why are there three holes? I have never found "access" to the chuck to be difficult. If access were the only issue, all you have to do is spin the chuck until you hit that spot you can access...
That thing with tightening the chuck with all access points is utter bullshit. The lower part is stationary while the upper part tightens the jaws by spinning. The access points are only there for accessebility and providing something for the key to go into.
The sheer tone of your response is self discrediting. Plus, the original tip of tightening the three access points stands solid in reality. From 30 years of experience.
You probably need more experience using drills and mortise machines. If you don't tighten all access points, the bit will not grip as tight and is likely to lock up in the wood.

I have had a Jet benchtop mortiser for about 10 years. This video is very well done a covers all the basics.
Very clear and informative! Why anyone would give you a thumbs down is baffling. I guess we have some bored Russian trolls here.

I bought a delta mortiser a couple years ago and it's been quite some time since I've used it. Always good to refresh ones memory.
That was such a comprehensive video! High quality content much appreciated.
Chris,
This hit the spot. I'm starting to look for a Mortise Machine and wasn't sure how they worked. This was just what I was looking for.
Very nicely and professionally done Chris... thanks so much... lots of great information in this video
Very easy to follow video, allowing the novice to proceed with some knowledge and confidence.
Very good video, was of great help to me.

Excellent clear and concise instructional video.
Very clear and useful video. No dwelling on the obvious.
Your instructional videos are always bang-on: clear, comprehensive and practical. Thanks!

NIce video. Very thorough.
Thanks for sharing, very helpful!
Excellent video!
thank you for your help i have just set up my self my new workshop and i have just went out and got my self a new mortise machine i have evray machine now your video is good

@@AjaySharma-ie7ru bruh this comment was seven years ago
Excellent video, very informative, thank you!
Thanks for the education. very appreciated.
darn good review and all :) love the video.
Awesome!❤ Thank you.
I'm new to this and I didn't set the clearance space on the bit. Because of that, I'd put burs on the new bit. I will set my clearance. Thanks!
Professional job for sure. A lot of comments relative to what the first time user will experience.
thanks for the edu video
Love ya man! Thanks so much! This vid will help a great deal!!!
Thank you for sharing. God Bless you!
very informative video sir, I recently bought a jet jbm 5 mortiser machine. I want to know what is the size and length of the bit that you're using? thank you
Do you have a video on cutting a through mortise on a 6" thick piece of wood with the machine? Thank you.
thanks for the video !!!

Great Video! Well appreciated! Thank You,.
Where can we get this supply? How much it cost?
what is the advantage of it between the router?
mindfreak001009 The Router makes a round hole at the end while a mortising machine is square consistently. You can use a dado blade and it makes a round hole going up at the end. I am going to use the router then use the Mortising machine to make the ends square.
depending on the user
A more precision
B faster
C square edges
0:21 Strictly speaking, I don't think that's true as they can cut round holes too (when used without the chisel) and any other shape that mortising chisels come in.
Where will i get the mortising machine and what is its cost?
dose the Drill Press Mortising bit needs any attachment ?
What did you notice about the way the top stop was set in relation to the movement of the wood? its a question for homework and i'm stuck
I setup a 3/4 inch bit and the unit started smoking at the bit. Any recommendations on how to set it up?
Sharpen the chisel or have it professionally sharpened and apply some wax on the chisel and the bit. Then like the man said, go slow!
da pra usar esta máquina como uma furadeira simples? com brocas normais?
Thank you
Can you show a video showing on how to square up a block to 2 1/2 inches

Mmmgggg

I direct the chips to the side. That's where my vacuum hose is at, waiting on those chips to come out.
I want this machine..
How much price I am impress purchase machine address
How much runs Indian rupees sr
Hi
Yehhi kitne ka mchin
so much preparing to dig one hole...
first ! :-)
The time spent setting up the machine, I would make 10X mortises with my router.
NO you can NOT! I use both!
