Been looking and pricing a little. I was going to buy a mortising attachment for the one of the many drill presses in the shop. Watching EBay and they have, like many other things, have been high the past few weeks. I was expecting to pick one up for $35 with chisels but it's not to be.
So I have been looking at dedicated mortisers. There is not much available in old iron that is not really big industrial models and then there are few to pick from and hard to find. So I am giving serious consideration to a new one. Problem is I am out of my element. I haven't found a side by side review of mortisers. But I have read a lot of good comments about the/one of the Delta Models but that is about it.
So I am looking for some direction. One line reviews would be nice and personal usage. I really don't know what features I want. I don't want to spend anymore than I have too, but I don't want one that will wear out quick either.
