Gloat (ish)

So I have finally arrived at the income level where I can drop $0.5k on a tool and not be under the credit card burden for nine months...

Guess I should feel really lucky... most people are experiencing a much different state of affairs....

Anyhoo, as part of my enjoyment of this unprecedented state of affairs I picked up a Powermatic Benchtop mortiser for $399 shipped. New. Looking forward to many years of perfectly square holes!

You ought to invest some money in a CNC machine. That way you can have precision milled (not quite square) holes. It's got to be better, it's got initials!

Square holes???

I had a non-woodworker in my shop a year or so ago. He looked at my mortiser and said it was a funny looking drill press. I told him what it was and explained that it drilled square holes. He gave me one of those "what-the-hell" looks.

I left it at that (Hee-Hee) :^}
