Video Demo of 'Godzilla' the Horizontal Mortiser
For this mortiser I used a lot of design aspects from Woodgears. The
main difference being the X,Y tables. Instead of drawer guides, I used polished steel shafts and sintered bronze bushings. It slides around great. This was the most complicated jig I have ever made. It took me a little over two weeks to build. If you’d like to build your own, you can find plans at Woodgears for sale. If you choose to use the polished steel shafts and bushings as I did, there is a CAD drawing on my website. http://www.garagewoodworks.com/video.php Comment welcomed. Cheers, Brian |

I loved the wood handle for your mortiser. It looked like a wheelbarrow replacement handle I had to carve as a kid on the farm. No fancy tools. My dad handed me a chunk of wood and a knife and told me to carve it. I complained that knife was dull, He told me to sharpen it. So I carved me a replacement wheelbarrow handle. Your cute little handle brings back memories. Do you make your own tenons? |

What a blast -- both watching it, and seeing how smooth and functional it is. Why do I have the feeling that -- for about thirty five bucks worth of parts, at Radio Shack -- you could remote-operate that, from your living room ? Verrry cool ! |

I was thinking your could attach a motor to the Z-axis and add a screw drive to the Y-axis (depth of cut). You could add motors to each axis and write a program I suppose.?. :^) |

Very cool! I'm impressed, and envious. One suggestion: you should get a "Tool Girl", like Tim had on "Home Improvement". -Zz |
