## Overview

## Description

The Makita 7104L Chain Mortise is engineered with power and accuracy features and is ideal for timber framing and log home building. The 10. 5 AMP motor delivers 3, 200 RPM to quickly notch or cut holes in thick wood stock, and will cut lap joints up to 5-1/8" in. The razor sharp chain is engineered for clean and accurate cutting, with a large adjustable vise and knob for increased versatility. It weighs only 38. 1 lbs. for increased portability.

Review: Awesome tool for timber framers! - This tool saved me 60-90 minutes of hand work per mortise. The chain mortiser is expensive, but the productivity is enormous. I cut and cleaned 28 2x6" (4.5" deep) mortises in 4.5 hours (not including layout). Easy to use, accurate, repeatable. Two recommendations, clear the shavings immediately. Also, mark the base with a pen to ID the inside of the chain cutter for quick resets when returning to the original mortise wall. Final comment, the mortiser will work best for production work if the beams are square planed ahead of time.
Review: Great tool - worth every penny! - I'm building a timber frame barn and was contemplating cutting all of the joinery by hand (I have a lot of very good quality framing chisels, Japanese saws, etc. ), but the sheer number of large and deep mortises convinced me to spend the money on a chain mortiser. Oh. My. God. This machine is one of the best machines, woodworking or otherwise, that I have ever used. It easily and smoothly plunges a first mortise (about 11/16" x 2-1/16" with the 18mm chain) all the way through a 6x6. It has a depth setting which brings up the only negative... in a blind mortise the bottom will be rounded - you have to cut down about 1.25" deeper than your tenon. Then you rotate the chain to position 1 and cut again, then position 2 and cut a third time. You now have a mortise about 5" wide all the way through. Pull a lever and the chain moves forward about a half inch and the process repeats. If necessary, adjust the unit for the next cut and repeat. In my case, I'm cutting 2" x 5.5" all the way through... takes about 10 minutes per mortise and the result is a perfectly sized rectangular hole. It also will cut lap joints (for the tenon), but this is more difficult to set up. Can't recommend this tool enough. I planned to sell this machine when I'm done with the barn, but I might have to keep it just because it is so well engineered. Anyone want to buy some chisels?

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does it do in hardwoods? White Oak.**
A: I used the Makita chain mortiser in nothing but oak for my first 10 years as a timber framer. It does fine. Having said that, the chain needs to be kept sharp, and we, as most timber framers working with oak, used green timber. Old dry oak is a beast unto itself and not to be trifled with..

**Q: What is the biggest timber it will mount to?**
A: 12" but if the timber is bigger nail 2" boards on top and clamp to them

**Q: Can you purchase a longer chain and bar?**
A: Not that I can tell

**Q: What is the smallest mortise you can make?  If you made a single plunge, what is the size of the mortise?**
A: Size depends on thr chain.  We use 1/4"

*by S***R on April 22, 2016*

This tool saves a lot of time in a timber frame build. It is a heavy well built tool that will cut a 2 x 6 mortise in a matter of minutes in white oak timber. To do this in a traditional way would take a lot longer. It cuts safely, and accurately. I would strongly recommend to read the operators manual to get the most out of the tool. If I had one complaint is that there isn't a carrying case to protect it during transport. To was fixed this a crate made out of 1/2 inch plywood.
