I see two types:
A) Those that use a wedge system and (what appears to be a) single blade. (Mits & Mer)
&
B) Those that use a broach like it's a saw blade. (What appears to be most everybody else)
Most interested in the bigger M&M units. (1.5" max or bigger)
I am guessing that most of the time that these may be old and dirty, but still in good shape from only occasional use?
Is there much to wear out on these?
I have eyeballed a few vids. Looked at several For Sale ads.
Not sure 100% what I am looking at on the tooling side, but I am guessing that you must have your tooling for a certain slot width, and then you may have to make or scrounge a bushing for your hole D and H to match it?
The #2's seem to be expected to fetch good $, while the bigger ones seem to be much cheaper.
Is this b/c most folks don't want that big animal taking up that whole dark corner by it'self?
And likely the tooling is more too?
What doo you have to say about this?
