Hey all,
I just purchased a General 75-040 M1 5/8” Hollow Chisel Mortiser. I am pretty excited to start some new mortise and tenon work. I am going to attach it to a mobile work stand as these things sure are tough to move around at almost 100lbs!
It came with 4 stock chisels but I am not sure about the quality of them. This will be the first dedicated mortiser I have ever used. Prior, I used a mortise attachment on a drill press.
I am just wondering what everyone thinks of this machine. Are there any concerns? Any advice/tips?
Thanks for looking,
Adam
