It is necessary to purchase this kit for long chisels and bits
5/5

Initially, I wasn't certain that I needed it, but after my first use of the Mortiser I decided to use it as a result of the length of the chisel and bits. It was easy to assemble thanks to the instructions. It's important to be aware of how heavy the mortiser is. The process of making the change is simple. Thanks to my clearance, I am now able to do what I need to do. The situation is very positive.

Having this option on hand is great, however, once installed you will loose the capability to adjust the rack and pinion fence
4/5

This is a great addition for people who need to extend the height of their Powermatic 701s. It was installed on my computer, but I You are unable to adjust the fence with the rack and pinion on the mortiser equipped with a riser. In the future, I intend to keep my extra height on hand, and only use it if and when I need it.

Very happy with the results! In my case, using this riser block, I was able to mortise stock that was 6" thick
5/5

It would have been nice if they had a holddown extension.

A simple installation and an easy to operate product
5/5

The machine is now able to handle more loads thanks to this compact unit. My only quibble is this In the rack on fence, there is a slot through the riser block, which is great, but the pinion gear no longer engages properly, making the knobs for adjusting the height worthless.

How important is quality to you? It is your responsibility to pay
5/5

The app has yet to be used by me. As such, we give it a five minute rating, unless we can prove otherwise. I can tell you Metal is awesome, and this piece is awesome.
