Greenlee is an American industrial and electrical tool company headquartered in Rockford, Illinois.It was founded in 1862 by twin brothers Robert L. and Ralph S. Greenlee to manufacture their invention called a hollow chisel mortiser, consisting of a drill surrounded by four chisel blades used in making mortises (the hole) for mortise and tenon joints, for the furniture industry in Rockford.

A chain mortiser used in timber framing. For cutting larger mortises such as those used in timber frame construction, chain mortisers are commonly used. A chain with cutters (similar to a chainsaw chain) rotating within a frame clamped to the work is successively plunged into the workpiece to mortise out the required volume.
The original tool supported cutter sizes from 4 mm to 10 mm with available tenon sizes from 4x20 mm up to 10x50 mm. This allowed joints in stock as thin as 10 millimetres (0.39 in). Later a bigger tool was introduced allowing tenon sizes up to 14x140 mm, opening many carpentry use cases for the tool family.
Some mortise gauges are designed with one retractable spur, so that they can be used as marking gauges as well; [6] however, because the mortise gauge is an expensive and high precision tool, many carpenters prefer to have a separate marking gauge for general use. [5]
