Cool new toy for the shop
I’ve had one of these for about 10years,you adjust the width of mortice on the small plate on the second hand so no need to measure and the yellow marker is width of chain,it’s a fantastic machine,try the Makita 4 blade Tenoner!
Very informative
Kia Ora & Good Afternoon from Auckland, New Zealand …great video bro …
Great bit of kit.........bought mine in 2001 and still going strong.........watch out for smashing off the depth gauge when cutting through mortises.
Look up today's price. You'll be glad you already own one.
great bit of kit. i'm getting one.
"Great bit of kit" is one of those expressions I need to adopt :-)
@@SalemWoodworks got a few more where that came from, haha.
What chain size do you recommend for timber frame hardwood
I'm really not an expert there... I just used the chain that came installed.
I love this tool, 🧡
খুব ভাল লাগছে যে আমার ইচ্ছা আছে এই মেশিনটি পায় কোথায়
I am getting one and I don’t even do joinery work.
It’ll look great on the mantle piece.
Only kidding I am planning on building a large timber frame shop in my back garden here in the UK.
This tool would be very handy but they are quite expensive.
Yes, it was a painfully expensive tool. Good luck with your build.
@@SalemWoodworks Thanks for the reply.
I want to buy this product
Could you use this tool to mortice into an upright post. I have about 2km of post and rail fencing to do with the rails mortised into 150mm x 150mm square posts. Will the clamp be strong enough to hold on the post in an upright position. Any advice would be appreciated before i fork out $3k (Aussie dollars) or so for one of these. Thanks in advance.
It's definitely not designed to work that way. I doubt that the clamp would reliability hold the weight of the tool on a vertical post.
@@SalemWoodworks Thanks. I appreciate the reply.
i've used a Mafell door lock morticer for this job
Since my first comment I have purchased the makita version and have been using it on 200mm x 200mm upright posts and it has worked a charm! Saved me a lot of time and has definitely paid for itself a few times over.
Version of what? The door lock machine?
Is machine ka price kya hai

What is the width of the beam you used in the video? Do you happen to know the max width? Would rather not plane my 8” post down to 7.48” or 190mm. Thank you. Maybe you can check those instructions you chunked over your shoulder lol
Max width it can accommodate is 12 1/8". www.makitatools.com/products/details/7104L
Where did you get your layout tool? It looks like a Big Al.
I made it... more in a coming video. It's a copy of a Borneman layout square.
So what's the verdict after almost a year? I am searching for a chain mortiser. My friends are pushing me to get either a Mafell or Swisspro but I see no issues with the less expensive Makita as long as it does the trick and has longevity. The others are 3 to 4 times the price and I don't think they even have as many features.
Well, first let me qualify by saying that I don't have any experience with Mafell or Swisspro so I'm not sure I'm qualified to answer. I used the same Makita in the timber framing course I took at the North House Folk School. The fact that they use Makitas at a school to teach timber framing likely speaks well of their durability and longevity. My instructor there said that the Mafell was a superior machine primarily because he was more productive with it (you don't have to clamp the fence like you do with the Makita because the chain runs perpendicular to the plane of the beam being cut). That said, like you I found it hard to justify the heavy price tag of the other machines. Truthfully, as a hobbyist, I found it hard to justify even the Makita. So the verdict after a year (and building one frame with it) is that I'm still happy with choosing the Makita. It worked extremely well for me in creating fast/accurate mortises. I hope to build more frames yet and if I ever decide I'm done with timber framing, these Makita machines command a good price used, so I'll recover much of the cost then.
Ugh. I'm literally looking at a Makita here for $1600 vs a Mafell for $3700 plus a fence....Hard to justify the price. So many good reviews for the Makita and unlike my friend, I am not doing this for a living so I don't think I need a pro tool in this case. Makita is a rip cut vs a cross cut Mafell. Motor strength is a factor but again...eh. Reply appreciated.
@@SalemWoodworks I mill my own timber and went with a lesser mill and have been happy. Not surgically precise but does the job very well. A Makita may not have the nod of approval from the professional community but I have to say there are tons of good reviews and vids of the Makita and few for the others. I think Makita may be the choice
Where I will get this
I purchased online through a tool dealer. They are on Amazon.
Price
Hou are prize
Throw those instructions like a pro!
A tip of the cap.
How cust of chain mortiser?
I assume this was asking how much the tool cost. In round numbers, it's about $2000 US.
One piece chahie India mein kitne ka Aakar padega
Like most wood working tools you just want to touch that blade ! You know it would be a stupid idea but you know you really want to
I can't say I've had that urge...
@@SalemWoodworks when I was at carpenter school we used to talk about it a lot , very common urge with carpenters 🤣
@@SalemWoodworks aonde eu encontro esta máquina ?
Sar number chahiye
এই মিসিনটা চাই কিন্তু কোথা পাব 11:27 🎉
Price ky hai eski
Yes, it's an expensive tool.
Love throwing away the instructions. Love the fart @5:15. And you're standing on the wrong side of the mortiser @ 8:40, according to another youtuber.
I'm going to claim 5:15 was just an audio glitch, but I have a response for your other CZcamsr... czcams.com/video/MQ44Jqi5pRY/video.html
the correct way to use the machine is from the other side ! Do your research on the mortiser!
I respectfully disagree.
Sar aapka number dijiye machine mangaane ke liye
machine ka price kitna hai
Sorry for the slow reply. I paid $1800 US. It's available for $2000 from Amazon.
