Drill press morticer

[woodsworth]

I have a friend who was inquiring into mortice attachments for the drill press. I've seen them in the past but never seen one in action. Has anyone tried one? Do they work? If so where is the best place to buy one.

rubbish save your money

The drill frame is not rigid enough and distorts

Don't do it. Rubbish.

If I do mortices on the drill press I use a Forstner bit and do lots of overlapping holes. All that is needed is to square off the corners with a sharp chisel. much like you do if you cut the mortices with a router. You can, of course round the edges of the tenon instead of squaring the mortice.
