I'm looking to cut 3 pass-through mortises (2"x6" long)

Any other suggestions on how to do this easily with hand power tools?

That looks like an interesting tool, but the longest blade available
appears to be 65mm, which is not long enough to cut through 8" even if
you cut from both sides: 4" is about 102mm.
