Good morning all. I have been asked by a friend to come up with a production plan to make some horse jumps for his horse barn. He wants to use cedar posts with some decorative side standards that support the rails for the show horses to jump over.
My question is what would be the best machine to cut the through mortises on the 4x4 cedar posts and should I use a RAS to cut the tenons? My thought was maybe a Powermatic 6x6 (?) mortising machine with a sliding table? He understands that buying a high quality machine is good business.
Any production thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!
