the stiles. Mortise length will depend on the height of the tenon (less the haunch), which should be as high as possible for maximum gluing surface.

If the mortise will be chiseled out... (and this is the best way if not too many need be done) the mortise width is determined by the width of the chisel used...usually V* inch. When locating the upper and lower edges of the mortise don't forget to allow that Vi inch extra "horn" at the stile ends as well as the height of the haunch which can be as high as it is long. Mortises are normally laid out centered on the stile thickness. If the mortise falls off-center, the corresponding tenon can be cut to compensate, but too much compensating can get you into trouble so it's best to work as accurately as possible.

To find the centerline of a mortise, stand a rule on edge across the thickness of the stile and angle the rule so that the 1 inch mark falls exactly on one edge of the stile while the 2 inch mark aligns with the opposite edge. The exact centerline is at the 1 Vi inch mark (Fig. 5).

Before laying out, identify with a pencil mark what will be the face side of each stile; clamp them together with the face sides out and mark both with the same lines. Use a marking gauge, or better yet, a double spur mortise gauge to mark the boundaries of the mortises, gauging from the face sides.
