Hi Timothy: I am very impressed with the simplicity, accuracy and repeatability of the pantorouter. It is a nice little machine and I think I'll find all sorts of uses for it!
That would be cool for sure! Brooks Post and beam has made tools to do mortises and tenons for their builds - Like a homemade Hundugger! Their timber posts have tenon inserts and their connecting girts are opened mortised. Complete opposite of how we timber frame... But, think how easy it is to assemble... Stand a post and the girt drops on top of the post tenon.
You only forgot to show one thing. Setting the thickness of the wood. I'm sure you did it ahead of time, but it's vital to making the mortise and tenon
Hi Andy: At this point, I do not have any Festool machines in the shop. I did look at the Domino video and I think the difference is having an integral tenon vs a domino insert. The Domino does look to be fast.
@terrychristian672 Hi Terry Typically you use the 10mm guide bearing when making mortises and the mortise bit determines the width of the mortise. For tenons a combination of the bit size and the guide roller determine the tenon width. I believe Pantorouter has a cheat sheet for guide roller and bit combinations to achieve desired tenon widths. Mortise and tenon lengths are determined by the selected template. Hope this info helps.
Hi Matias Look on line at pantorouter.com. They are a great company to work with. If you are considering a unit - look at the ‘all-in’ option because you get all the jigs and the cutter tools. Good luck 🍀
Nice to see that you also use a pantorouter :) Great video!

Very neat tool! It would be nice if they scaled this up for timber framing too.

Heck of a machine.
Hi Grunt 49
Yes it does an incredible job!
Have you tried a festool domino? I'm thinking it might be quicker.

How do you determine what bit size to utilize?
Hi Terry
For most jobs I use 3/4” stock so I make 3/8” mortises and tenons. Hope this helps
@@theMainetimberframer thank you. Do you have to change the diameter of the guide bearing when cutting the tenons? Or just use the smallest one?
