- "Loose-tenons" don't mean tenons that are loose. And you don't need a $1000 tool to make them!

Finally a mortise and tenon jig that I can afford and can build myself. That simple video just took all the trepidation out of making those joints. Once my shop is set up I'll be making one. Thank you.
Did you make one?
@@aaronq2627 not yet. But hopefully this winter when I can spend the days in the ( still in progress) shop. Thanks!
Running The Jig through the table saw and making a thin kerf is brilliant. Such a simple way to make it perfect!
Agreed, real clever
Thanks for making the jig part of this simple and straightforward. :)
I have been working with wood since I was a small kid in the 70's alongside my dad in his garage shop. I like that while you have and use the new tech, you also add little ways to make things with the older skills, and less expensive tools. good job, keep it up. I have passed my love of woodworking along to my son, who also watches your videos.
Sir, you are a genius. This is something I have been looking to build for a while as I can't justify the outlay on a Domino. I look forward to spending the next few days watching your video archive. Thank you and a big hello from the UK!
That you so much from "down under" in New Zealand! The video on making a loose tenon joint has made it so clear to me now. I will be using this type of Joinery quite often in the future on various projects. It is really so simple, and cheap, to make up the appropriate jig for the job. Thanks once again. Doug 🤠
Another brilliant one!
Loose tenon joinery is a very nice option in most cases, I'd also recommend checking the Samurai Carpenters Mortise and Tenon jig for routers, that one is awesome.
James, one thing I would add, having done a bed recently with lots of loose tenon joints. If your bit chatters because you used the wrong plunging technique and your mortises are a 1/16” too wide, cut thin strips on the saw, then glue the shim and tenon into the mortise. And if your bit chatters as badly as mine, use polyurethane construction adhesive. The glue’s expansion in the joint makes for rock solid joints even though a few mortises were frustratingly out of dimension (1/4” spiral upcut with 2”deep mortises).
My favorite part is leaving the tenon a little shy in the mortise. That's something my perfectionism just won't always let me do, but it sure is nice to have that little movement when you need it!
Giving us all the benefits of your years of experience, it almost makes it feel like we’re cheating. As always, thank you for making our time in the shop all that much better.
James, you're the muts nuts. That's awesome in UK English. 😎👏👍✌️
Thanks James. I knew how to do the first bit, but the second half making a kerf width dado to keep the fence parallel is the game changer for me! Thanks man!
You ran through that really quickly, a rookie such as myself will have to watch and a few more times and take some notes. Really cool video
Right there with you. I understood the concept easily enough, but the specifics, I'll need to watch it again
I appreciate his conciseness - I can always pause or watch something numerous times. It’s better than having to watch a 30 minute video with 5 minutes of information or worse yet - someone who just plays bad music and doesn’t explain anything at all
Definitely on of my favorite channels. Informative, educational and entertaining. Keep up the great work, and a sincere "thank you".
Thanks for taking the time and effort to help all of us DIYers that can not afford $1,000 + for the other loose tenon jig. I really like the simplicity of this jig. I am going to be building a few cabinets soon and will be using this jig for the joinery.
Outstanding Tutorial - I'm off to the shop to try it out. Great, detailed explanation, Stumpy. More of these, please.
That was an EXCELLENT video! I can't wait to try it. Thank you, James.
Great demonstration James, thanks for sharing.
This is great. Thanks for the clear instructions and tips!
I enjoyed this video when it first came out and kept it in the back of my mind to use later. Later arrived yesterday when I used it on a couple of bookcase face frames. Went pretty well, will assemble them starting today. As a woodworker who has been doing this longer than most of the TH-camrs have been alive I have to say that there is much to be learned from the younger folks in the business. Thank you for the tips and I will continue to keep my eyes open for new ideas.
I have been watching TH-cam videos to make a mortising jig and this is by far the best and most simple. Thanks.
Brilliant 👍😍 I will definitely be trying this out. Thanks for showing us the way.
Thank you so much for sharing. It is a great tutorial and tool. I made a modification to the tool to capture saw dust. I cut a channel, the width and thickness of a small crevice tool centered on the back side of the gig that opens on the router guide slot. With my shop vac attached, I do not have to stop to vacuum the sawdust.
Thank you for another informative video that explains how I can rectify a problem I have. As an old (71 years) Marine Ordnance-man I am always amused by the Stumpy Nubs nick-name. We sometimes referred to our less cautious fellow ordnance brothers as One-eyed, Stumpy, limping guy. The really careless brethren were simply referred to in the past tense. Semper Fidelis.
Best woodworking video I have ever seen on youtube - Clear and precise
Thanks for sharing with us, lots of good information you’re putting out. Thanks so much.👍👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Incredible video James! Clear, succinct, and budget friendly. Have yourself a cold one, you definitely earned it with this one.
Nice job of explaining your method James. Thanks for all you do.
Love this method thanks James 👍🏻
This is so simple and awesome! I’m making one! Thank you!
I learn more with you style of presentation! Well done, Professor Hamilton.
Thanks for another very good, easy to understand tutorial. Keep 'em coming.
Excellent video! Succinctly and thoroughly explained. Nice work, James. Scott
Awesome video! This is just what I've needed to make my job easier.
This video is perfect -- fantastically good tips, expertly presented. I made two jigs like this to create loose-tenon mortises in a queen bed frame, adding a second fence to enclose the workpieces completely. A wide jig for the leg mortises, and a narrower one for the headboard and footboard rails. It's hard to slide the router bit sideways to cut deep 1/2"-wide mortises in red oak -- especially in end grain. The plunging method is the answer. Thanks for your help, once again. All hail Stumpy Nubs!
Love your tutorials! Thank you!
Great timing Stumpy! I have been wanting to build a solid core pocket door for our bathroom and with this setup I believe I can use your method! Thanks for posting, always great info!
Thanks bud! Fantastic video!
Now THIS is why I keep coming back. Well presented techniques that I can use during my limited time in the shop.
Thanks! I have been debating floating tenons, but this gave me the confidence to try them
Huge thanks from Norway!
Your content and level of detail is spectacular. And your soothing voice makes everything more enjoyable. Your content really blends the old with the new and the techniques feel really pure to the core of woodworking! Thanks!
Love your tips ,I'm new to wood working and your help is so much appreciated makes my learning curve a lot quicker 👍👍👍
This is superb! Very simple, clear. It’s no more intimidating as it seems after watching your video. Thanks a ton!
If you don’t already have a tv show you should. Not that I want you to leave here, you just do a great job and I think you deserve a large audience.
Many videos about mortise jigs, but this one is most useful ! Great tips in making parallel fence !! Thank you !!
What an absolutely great channel this is.
That scribing idea to fix a parallel fence perfectly is genius! Thankyou for sharing!!
Love this! Thank you for the tips.
You're "Always Amazing" James. Thank you for this as you saved me a lot of money!!! Peace out!
Excellent video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the great video James! I don't have a working router, but enjoy thinking of when I have the time to get it fixed.
This is great tip. Thank you
Thank you very much for the awesome jig idea! Subscribed!!!
Your videos are completely informative without any useless info. Your info is easy to understand. Thank you for this.
I really like your work. i just started in woodworking this last year or two but since I started I've started I have emassed almost all the tools I think will be needed for the type of woodwork that i plan on doing. So far I have made an enclosure for my hot tub, an old fashion folding leaf table for my wife and a bench seat for our kitchens bay window dinning nook. Much to the thanks of videos like yours, keep them coming and thanks for the help.
James, Simply genius idea with saw kerf alignment. Thank you again for all your hard work.
Brilliant. Love it.
Bookmarked because of your newest video
Just what I needed to know, right when I needed to know it. Thanks so much for this.
Fantastic, will be trying out a few loose tennons on a project, tennons are super strong👌 just like the dovetail you added on that floating bed on instagram, nice detail only real woodworkers appreciate
Wow, this is such a simple jig to make. Making two custom doors and now I have my jig. Thank you so much.
Mr Nubs I absolutely love your videos man, you're very informative. All your videos make sense and are worth watching no matter how many years or experience I have.. you have more cause you're older 👍
Thank you very much. Great to learn new ways of doing things without having to spend heaps of money!
Stumpy. I want thank you for all your Master Craftsman Teaching in Basic and other Techniques. I'm going forward in making Projects to Sell. I wish to be successful as yourself, as my example.
Great video and tutorial. I had thought you could do this but had not seen a pro use it, so I figured I was missing something. Thanks!
Awesome approach to cutting mortises. I’m doing this next time!
Thanks for this! I learned something today!
Great tutorial!
Nice method. I plan to check out your magazine soon as you provide extremely valuable content. Keep it up!
Very nice channel! I watch bits videos with pleasure
This is a super cool idea! I've been looking for a better system than I have been seeing on TH-cam, as they involve time consuming steps. A double mortise and tenon is the perfect solution, and I don't need a biscuit jointer either!
Great video thanks
Another Great video and tip!!! Thanks so much for sharing with us,always enjoy your videos!!!w
I had to rewatch the part of placing the jig fence like 6 times before I got it. As usual I was overthinking it. Brilliant design and I can’t wait to apply this loose tenon joinery for the next doors I build. Sure sounds easier than the rail and style method on the shaper I did plus dowels to make some solid oak doors a few years ago. 😉
Thank you very much for a great video, very clear!
Great video, Stumpy~!! I don't see myself putting out the $$$ for a Domino, so this is a great way to accomplish the same thing. I see myself making a couple/few of these jigs for different loose tenon sizes.
Thanks~!
Awesome tip - thank you!
Thank you for this video.. about to embark on a baby crib build and am weighing this vs dowels.
Thinking actually making slat tenons on saw since the wood dimensions are thin. Great work your doing !!
Good instructions mate!
Stumpy,
I have been racking my brain over loose tenons lately, this solves a lot of the problems I have been trying to figure out.
I plan on getting a Festool Domino at some point, but this is exactly what I need right now!
Now to the shop! Ok not right this second, I don't think my kids or neighbors want me out making saw dust at 5am :)
Great explanation
I must say, that is a slick way to do mortises and tenons for large pieces. Affordable too.
Thanks for sharing the video and the interesting jig.
Good to learn easy and effective method!!!
Excellent video and explanation. When I make my mortise templates, rather than gluing them up like you do, I staple the strips to a blank of 1/2 inch MDF. Then, I use a bearing bit to cut out the hole in the MDF. Pop off my strips, and the template is ready to go. No glue squeeze out, or waiting for it to dry.
Great video
That's actually a fantastic tip! 😃
Thanks a lot, dude!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Think i may just have to give this a try... great video sir
brilliant tutorial on tenon joinery
what a great video, thanks for that. Regards Steve
Great Video...way better than spending $1000+ for a Festool Domino tool... Thank you
Great tips thanks!!
Holy cow great information - Thanks
Excellent video thanks for sharing...🤘🤘
I have been using a hollow chisel mortise and table saw for years. I gotta give this a try. Next project is restroom wainscoting. Perfect opportunity. Thx.
Excellent, the easiest one I’ve seen.👌
You’re just a Stud! I don’t know what else to say….?? lol. Your vids up my woodworking game….. so what else am I suppose to say….??! Besides, thx a million!
