Jet 708582 JMA-582 Mortising Attachment Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Jet's mortiser is heavy, well machined cast iron but the hold downs werenot bent to the same radius or cut to the same length. This doesn't effecthow I use the system but it may be a consideration for anyone who will notdevelop their own hold down and fence system to work with their particulardrill press.
The fence is a piece of hollow plastic that needs somebetter way of being clamped tight and square to the drill press's table.(Assuming you can square it with the chisel mounted in the chuck.)
Iwould suggest buying the chisels from Jet. They are better than the two 10year old chisels I have from Delta. These chisels and bits are reallysharp! Mine have stayed that way although I haven't pushed them throughanything harder than soft maple.
Be prepared to spend a lot of timesetting up this mortiser to your drill press. Make engraved markings on thedrill press head and chuck "shoulder" to readily square themortising attachment to the table and fence. I would recommend that youbuild your own fence system and hold downs.
