Buy WEN 43012 Cast Iron Bench Mortiser with Chisel Bit Set, 5-Amp

5-amp motor with a chuck that is 1/2-inch wide can make up to 1725 rotations per minute.

When the spindle moves 4-1/4 inches, it can make mortises up to 3 inches deep.

13-1/2 by 6-inch table with a 10 by 8-inch cast iron bas.

On-board tool and chisel storage is a great way to keep things organized and keep bits accessible.

There are three chisel bits: 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 inches. There is also an adapter for your drill, 3/4-inch chisel bushing, an adjustable handle, a spring-tensioned fence, a depth stop, and a two-year warranty.

This Mortiser isn’t very good. In the past, I used the WEN 13″ planer and was happy with it. When I decided to get a mortiser, I decided to go with WEN as well. Precision isn’t as good as it should be. In this case, only one side of the chisel bit is being pressed by the set screw that holds it. This causes the bit to come down at a different angle than the drill bit. The gears that drive the handle/head don’t look like they were made with any precision, which makes the machine move vertically while it’s running. In addition, there is a lot of wiggle room in how you connect your fence to the base. This means that you have to keep adjusting and tightening the fence. First, I’ll think about it before I buy another WEN item again.
