Delta 17-924 Need to drill a square hole? Use this mortising attachment with chisel and bit sets to turn your drill press into a mortising machine. This kit includes everything you need to cut square holes for mortise and tenon joints. The yoke attachment clamps onto drill presses with quill diameters of 66 mm, 50.8 mm, 48 mm, and 38 mm and holds the chisel in place. A drill bit fits in the center of the hollow chisel and removes the bulk of the material while the chisel squares out the corners. It offers a large 4-inch hold-down capacity for thick workpieces and 2-3/4-inch width capacity. Fits Delta model 11-980, 11-990, 14-070 and 17-900 drill presses, 11-090 radial drill press, and Sears model 21313, 21315 and 21317 drill presses. Includes mortising attachment, four mortising chisel and bit sets (1/4-, 5/6-, 3/8-, and 1/2-inch), and handy carrying case.

Great item for a new woodworker!

This fit perfect in my Delta drill press. It's perfect for the first time or new woodworker who doesn't want to buy a dedicated mortiser. Would definetly recommend to anyone thinking about getting one!

Poorly Cased

I've read other reviews regarding this item, and have to agree Delta really got lazy with the kit case for it. Things are jumbled into it with no place for them to be, just piled on top of other components, wherever there's room. The tool itself is what I expected, does the job, and fits my drill press fine. For a shop with not a lot of available space, versatility is a must, and this is a reasonable alternative to a bench top mortising machine.

Ok, but too small

Received the product and put it together in about an hour. Agree with previous reviews that alignment is going to be an issue and without proper alignment it's useless. My big problem was that I bought the product for a particular project (a large workbench) and the piece does not fit on the drill press (4x4 column). Both height and depth were issues. I tested on scrap wood and it seems to cut nice square holes, however, I'm going to have to go the old fashioned route for this project. Looks like it will be good for small projects.

Okay for casual use

This setup is okay for limited use. One disappointment was the poor shape the cutting surfaces are in....I am a big fan of SHARP....these are not really too well conditioned. But, for the limited use I plan of using this tool for, it appears as though it will perform well enough to allow me to get small projects completed. I suggest you visit a bit sharpener or get to work with your own stones prior to beginning any work.
