Morticers AVAILABLE TO ORDER AND VIEW IN ALL STORES FROM LATE FEBRUARY
Japanese Pattern Mortice Chisels & Bits The design of the Japanese pattern could well reflect the use of softer timbers used in traditional Japanese furniture making, the auger having a deep, high ratio flute, quickly removing the longer slivers softwoods create. The auger bit on this type has a point on the end, one cutting spur and a single spiral for rapid chip clearance. The single spur is easy to sharpen and the bits cut evenly and fast, even in the hardest of timbers.
Bushed to take 3/4” shank mortice chisels, drill chuck included
The chisel is finely ground and slightly tapered from the tips by 0.1mm to allow easy removal from the mortice. A deep waste slot prevents the waste material becoming jammed around the auger.
Multi position depth stop system, perfect for haunches
These mortice chisels and bits are made from the finest Japanese carbon steels, selected as ideal for these tools. Often imitated but never equaled.
Integral material clamp with multiple positions, can clamp tapered work
Either way, a high quality chisel will enhance your morticer’s performance to a degree where once tried one you will never use a low quality chisel again. Admittedly, they are a big investment, but, what a difference!
Table slides on dovetails with adjustment to remove play
Lateral table movement 100mm, longitudinal movement 40mm
N.B. As all the auger bits have to accommodate different machines they are supplied long and will need cutting with a conventional hacksaw blade to suit the specific machine for which purchased.

AC16BM Morticer Cutting square holes is a joy. This bench top morticer has the huge benefit of both lateral (side to side; Y-axis) and longitudinal (front to back; X-axis) movement. Hand wheels make manoeuvring a workpiece longitudinally and laterally easy. The table and headstock run on dovetail slides and both feature adjustable jib strips ensuring years of accurate use. The work clamp can clamp tapered work such as table legs. A gas strut counterbalances the weight of the head and motor. A quiet and cool running alloy bodied motor provides ample power. Stops for both vertical and horizontal movements allow accurate repeat work. Supplied with drill chuck and key, chisel bush and service tools. N.B. takes 3/4” shank chisels only. The optional riser block raises the headstock by 50mm for morticing taller work-pieces.
Riser Block Kit This riser block kit fits both versions of the Axminster Craft AC16BM morticer and gives a very useful increase in the working height of 50mm. Inc.vat Riser Block Kit £19.96
