I reread the instructions and installed the chisel and auger. The top spacer was used as I was installing the 1/2 chisel. When I removed the spacer and slid the chisel up, it seems to be an extreme distance between the bottom of the auger and the bottom of the chisel. I was using soft cypress, so I did not hone the chisel, as it seemed extremely sharp and should be sharp enough to drill cypress. It took way too much effort to drill any square mortise, and a squeal develops when I really put some pressure on the handle. Also it get hot very fast. The bottom of the auger hole is about 1/4" below the square mortise sides. This is a start, but something is not right with my setup. I guess I may need to hone the chisel, but the distance between the auger and chisel is not right as well. I tried to split the distance between what the Powermatic spacer allowed for by about half and tried again. Not much luck. I have stopped for now as I was just practicing, and will probably hone the chisel and try again. Any advise will help.
