Those are perfect actually, they¡¯ll do a tenon about 2 3/4¡± long. My shaper has a throat opening of 320mm, but with the fence on, 230 is max diameter. I¡¯ve got two of those cutters in the cart at Scott+Sargeant, waiting for a response from Rangate. I¡¯ve heard too many good things about them to not give them a shot first.
Yes, it¡¯s an old oscillating chisel mortiser, a Wysong and Miles 284.?Here¡¯s a pic:

Thanks Shawn. Is that the oscillating chisel mortiser? They are awesome, only seen videos.

Your got to give what clients want/need. Check this link out ¨C I did not see any large rebate heads but they have a good filter to find items:

I assume you are limited to 220mm dia. They are missing cutting depth info but price is very reasonable. Exchange rate is 1.3. I just got a heavy dado from them and shipping was ?55 (~$70). It arrived in 4 days. For details call them or email Louis Charnaud?(louis@...). If you order make sure your card does not have foreign exchange fee. It is less of a problem now a days but you never know.

Definitely, call rangate also. I do not have anything from them but folks here are super happy with them.

Thanks Imran, nice work. I mostly do traditional mortise and tenon doors and windows, but sometimes do floating tenon, depending on the situation. Most of my clients are in arts-and-crafts or Victorian homes, and the traditional approach fits well in those situations. My sash cutters give a 1 1/2" tenon length, so mortise and tenon sashes are quick and easy, and my mortiser is a 2,000 pound cast iron beast, hold the pedal down and watch is chop out a 5/8" mortise without a second thought. Two rebate cutters from Felder would be perfect for door rail tenons, but they're out of stock, one to two month lead time. The search continues...

Shawn,

this door is over 8¡¯ tall and 6.5¡¯ wide.

max tenon is 1¡±, here is the rail & stile joinery detail:

the joinery is augmented by floating tenons

so i milled no big traditional tenons. industry uses mostly dowel construction. something to consider.

Hi all,

I'm looking for a new cutter option for cutting 2 1/4" long tenons with clean, square shoulders, on a F900 sliding shaper, 1 1/4" spindle. Most of the time, the material is 1 3/4" thick mahogany with a 5/8" thick tenon. I'm thinking stacking two insert groovers with a spacer between, or an appropriate adjustable groover. Anybody have any recommendations for cutters? Rangate's adjustable groover looks like a great option, but I don't think it'll cut a tenon longer than 1 1/2", correct? These are for mortise and tenon entry door rails, and I've always done at least 2 1/4" length. Is 1 1/2" long enough for exterior door construction? Thanks for any guidance.

Shawn
