A customer of mine asked me: "when do you use an angle base boring machine?"
As my machine is a fixed base machine and I've only ever used it to do straight mortises, I didn't have an answer.
So, my question to you timber framers out there who have angle base machines is "when do you use an angle base machine?" And how do you start the lead screw on an angle?
