Product Description
TSM-22 Pocket Cutter Machine
The TSM-22 clamps the stock, routs a 6 degree, low-angle pocket, and drills a pilot hole - all with a tap of the foot pedal - in a cycle time of just 1.5 to 2 seconds. Known for creating Castle’s pioneering, 6 degree, low-angle pocket, the TSM-20 series has a well-earned reputation for unsurpassed durability, ease of operation, and low maintenance.
The TSM-22 is the latest model in Castle’s vaunted TSM-20 series, the most widely used, and best-selling series of pedal-operated pocket cutting machines ever made. It is a clear favorite among professionals in cabinet making, furniture making, woodworking, and more.
Creating strong, stable joints is fast and easy with the TSM-22. Very little training is required and with a work deck that smoothly lifts, maintenance is hassle-free. The TSM-22 is PLC controlled for better performance and easier troubleshooting, uses standard 110V electric, and only requires minimal set-up upon delivery.
Use the TSM-22 with composites, panel, hard or soft wood.

Game Changer
This machine is a shop game changer. I've used other pocket hole systems for a steeper angle for all of my career. Using the castle system opens up a whole new world and is a breath of fresh air. The TSM-22 is fast and productive. It is well built and a joy to use. Once you experience the pleasure of using this low angle pocket hole system you'll wonder why you waited so long. The machine comes in a reasonable amount of packaging/protection and was easy to setup. I recommend watching their YouTube video to guide you through the setup process, the video takes the guesswork out of the setup and streamlines the process. I would say you can have the machine setup and operational in less than 30 minutes, maybe even 15 minutes. I'm looking forward to a lot of years of production with this machine.
