Where's Loring when you need him? :-) I was planning on buying a DP attachment but Loring set me straight - basically the DP is not built to take the stress that is necessary to make the mortise. Long levers on the Mortiser allow a lot of leverage to "chisel" the square edges. The DP does not have these long levers and the gearing is not really built to take the stress anyway. In other words, it's hard on the DP. I've never used one but it made sense to me.

Thanks - that does make sense and I never really thought about it. I guess I'll keep looking - the HF unit is probably where I'll end up
