I have the LV model; but haven't used it for hinge mortises. I like it
but would like it a lot better if the magnets were about twice as
strong.


Thanks, Morris. I saw the PC model Dan G. uses, which doesn't rely on
magnets. I think I'll go with that one. What would be the benefit of
having magnets hold the chisel, versus the PC style? Anyone know?
