One Fantastic Tool
Sick of setting up your router or drill press attachment to make a mortise? JET has what you want in the JFM-5 Floor Mortiser with Closed Stand. The gutsy 1-horsepower motor won’t stall, providing consistently smooth performance. No tools are needed for adjustments: a three-jaw drill chuck holds your mortising chisels securely, while handwheels control smooth linear and cross table motions. Weighing in at 291 pounds, its heavy-duty cast iron and steel construction provides durability and stability no matter how many mortises you cut. You can also work with angled pieces, thanks to the quick position table mounted swiveling vise clamp. No worries, thanks to JET’s industry-leading customer service at the end of their toll-free number. Not that you’ll have problems with this workhorse.
