    Mortising machine - clean mortises?

    I have a project in mind that will require 1/4" through mortises. A lot of them. I pretty much stink at making mortises by hand. In your experience, does a mortising machine make clean through...

    They didn't have the Advance. Found another water-based enamel. Now I just wish I could get them to do the painting. I stink at this. I've just primed one piece, and when it dries I'll have about an...

    No sprayer, and the crib is finished, so it will definitely be poplar. It will have to be a brush-on finish like the ProClassic Jim has suggested. What about a primer? Any need for a primer?

    If you want to come over into Fort Worth, Barney Robinson is on Lancaster just west of Downtown. They will let you choose your stock. Unfortunately, they are open only on weekdays.

    I have a stand that has a cam lock at one end. The cam raises the feet and allows the stand to roll. I think it was in Wood's workshop plans.

    The Woodmizer LT10 also comes with a 7HP motor, and can handle up to a 24" log. I don't have one, but they have a good reputation among sawyers. I'd be unlikely to buy one of these from Harbor...
