   You will regret it!  Get a slot mortiser and forget the chisel mortiser. Folks have having good luck with the Grizzly G0540 even though it's sold as a horizontal drill. Have used every type of mortiser from chisel, chainsaw and Maka and the horizontal slot mortiser is by far the best way to go!!!!!!

   The mortising kit for the drill press is only good if you make  occasional mortises.  They can be a real pain to set up and repeatability becomes an issue.  If you make a lot of mortises, look elsewehre.

   I agree, get the Grizz. The dedicated motiser  is okay, the attachment is very limited due to the lack of leverage on a dp handel.
