Loose Tenon Options – Downloadable Technique

There’s little doubt that the mortise-and-tenon joint is one of the strongest joints in woodworking. But it’s not always the quickest or easiest to cut. There’s an alternative that’s a lot easier to make—the loose-tenon joint. This joint can be made quickly with a router, a cordless drill, or a high-speed mortiser, and when it’s assembled with modern adhesives, it’s plenty strong for most projects.
