Cut halfway, flip and cut from the other side. I square up the corners with a chisel. If I am making doors, I round off the tenons and wedge them, as seen in the photo at the bottom left of the page. It's much quicker. To cut tenons on a band saw, set up the band saw fence and mark a scrap of wood, as shown at bottom right. As with the table saw, cut it by trial and error and once the scrap is right, cut the real pieces. Cut the shoulders by hand with a dovetail saw. Remember that all of these methods can be mixed. Use the one you like best. I antiqued the stool by rounding off the corners unevenly with a chisel, rasp, broken brick, etc. I finished it with shellac and brown wax. From a cow hide, I cut 1" strips for weaving the seat, which I learned from Brian Boggs' DVD on hickory bark, sold by Lie-Nielsen Toolworks (lie-nielsen. com or 800-327-2520). PW The stop clamped against the table saw fence registers the shoulder cut, and keeps the work from jamming between the fence and the blade. Note: There are no shoulders on the edges. With this jig and an up-spiral bit, a plunge router will make clean mortises quickly. The router leaves mortises with rounded ends. Square them off with a chisel, or round the ends of the tenons to match. The fence on the band saw lets you make long straight cuts on the cheeks of the tenons. 44 Popular Woodworking October 2006 |
