This is a easy, convenient, strong and cheap alternative to a mortise and tenon joint, biscuits and pocket screw. Makes a strong joint in wood!

Great, I missed this one. I particularly like the swiveling handle, bot the hold the piece vertically and push the carriage as well.
Doweling is not my joint of choice but I 'm sure this machine can be easily enhanced to be do mortises as well.
Well done !

Nice work, Mark!

Total ripoff! I watched the entire 30 minute video waiting for Winky to ask me to draw something on the screen to help him out and nothing.
Nothing!

credo che le guide debbano essere montate sotto il motore anziché sotto il piano; ciò per permettere la foratura di pezzi molto grandi difficili da movimentare.

Yes having the motor move instead of the table would be better in some respects. However, this requires a method to move the motor such as a lever, air cylinder or foot pedal. Moving the table allows the user to hold the stock in position on the table while moving it toward the drill and also simplifies construction.
