Radial Arm Saw Mortising Table Upgrade

The Happy Chisel LLC — Sun, 13 Apr 2025 04:51:22 +0000

After using my RAS mortising table for a couple years, I decided to make some much needed improvements. Work holding with external clamps was falling way short of my expectations and wasting too much time. My simple solution makes mortising faster, easier, and much better than before. The build video is on my Youtube Channel.

Check out my latest project! This is a live edge table that can be used as an end table, side table, lamp stand, night stand, or just about anywhere a small table could be needed. I built this from lumber I milled from logs. Watch the full 7 part series or skip to the end of part 7 if you only want to see the finished product.

If you ever need to safely edge joint boards that are shorter than your jointer fence, take a look at these push blocks I made. They provide excellent board control, allowing you to push the board firmly against the table and fence at the same time, while keeping your hands well away from the cutter head.
