We managed to break the depth stop on our makita mortiser last week. This did not surprise me, as the machine always jumps through on the second side of a through mortice.
The quick fix was to put some tape on the bar to show how deep the cut is, but it would be good to rebuild some kind of depth stop.
Has anyone had this material welded?
Has anyone found a workable alternative to the depth stop?
thanks,
-Mark.
