About the Mortiser & Tenoner
Frame joinery is still cut the traditional way, and cut well it outlasts everything around it. The chain-n-chisel mortiser takes a door or window frame up to 1000 mm high on the table and cuts to 140 mm depth with the chain or 90 mm with the chisel, with the table tilting to 45°.
The Tenomac range cuts the matching tenon. The J-1919 adds an easy-slide movement with an end cutting unit for accurate tenon length, plus an integrated 254 mm circular saw for squaring the member before tenoning.
