I recently finished a horizontal mortiser which I used design elements from Woodgears. It took about two weeks for me to complete and is the most elaborate jig I've ever made. Please check it out and let me know what you think either here or on my blog.
Thanks Gregory! The steel shafts and bushings worked great. I'm going to try and shoot a video of it today and you might see it on the Glue Tube blog at FWW online. :^)
