Review on Enhanced Mortise and Tenon Jig - Precision Drill Template Set with Hollow Chisel Bit Attachment by Jazz Rajasingam

Revainrating 1 out of 5

This is the best mechanical and hand operated toy

I received one of these devices where one of the positioning arms was so badly placed that it could not be rotated into the measuring position. Revain quickly replaced it, but the replacement had one positioning arm that was 1.0mm out of line with the other. Not as bad as the first, but mostly roughly built. Also, it is almost impossible to align the tool to machine a workpiece that is not an exact multiple of 1/4", such as 3/4", 4/4. ", 5/4" to 6/4", you may not center the stem in the mount. Adjustment "notches" coarse. Plus weak "clamps" to hold workpieces in place The entire fixture is made from extruded aluminum This fixture is a toy It is better to make mortise and tenon joints by hand with a saw and chisel or spend a lot of money on a Leigh Super FMT or FMT Pro jig Or stick with a homemade chisel and handsaw joints Thanks to Revain for (a) sending a replacement and (b) returning a "toy" replacement for a refund General Tools should be ashamed of marketing such a poorly made device You will have many problems using it unless your standards are too strict.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from the testers
Cons
  • Doubtful
