- Paul has developed his own system for cutting mortise and tenon joints using a conventional hand router plane to create perfectly sized mortise and tenons that are accurately aligned. This system will revolutionise the way you think about mortise and tenon joinery.
To see a beginner friendly guide on how to make a mortise and tenon, see our sister site: commonwoodworking.com/courses...

I'm just starting out. The end of this video is why I can't get enough of Paul Sellers. "And it's all yours. You go ahead."
The joinery is amazing, Paul. Thank you for making it less scary for we mere mortals! 😊
Mr. Sellers - how are you not knighted yet? Your love for woodworking, and the great detail in teaching has made woodworking such an important part of my own life. I appreciate everything you do for us.
knighted? what being a knight has anything to do with it? Paul is a great woodworker, a master at his craft.
But a Knight?

The idea in this presentation everyone is to kick start thinking differently and then working differently.
I think this will change the way I do mortise tenons from here on, could I respectfully ask if I could make the tenon length say 9/16th longer, then cut it off to finish size after the router work, rather than route the last 1/2 inch ?
McAVIT Yourway good idea !
I have been using guides for a while now for perpendicular cuts. I learned it from Charles Neil. He showed how he drilled and parried Mortise before he was able to afford a mortise machine. I have done it that way too.
I now own a bench top mortise machine but I will definitely try this method because sometimes the setup time might just be longer than the actual time used to cut a mortise by hand.
Yes, that is fine, but in my work, and in an upcoming project on masterclasses.com I add enough to the tenon length of the first tenon top make my gauge from. I also always cut two tenons at once so the length of tenons at say 1 1/2" becomes three inches between shoulder lines plus a kerf width and `i get two tenons at once.
The idea of doing 2 two tenons as a single piece and then cutting it in half just blew my mind... :) Thanks for all the amazing work you and your team do on this channel; you're an amazing teacher!
“I’ll do this one while I’m in the zone”. Legend.
every damn time I watch one of your instructional videos I learn 100 new things. Blown away, again.
Thanks Paul, for all the fantastic videos and sharing of techniques and knowledge. I have reduced my machines to just a bandsaw as hand tool woodworking is so enjoyable.
Thank you for the tip and for your kind comment!
Thank You !
This is such an innovative method for making a beautiful mortise and tenon joint.
I have only recently discovered these posts by Paul Sellers. Just an absolute pleasure to watch and learn.
Great tutorial as usual, Paul. I like to make the tenon half an inch longer than finished size. That way you can just cut off the end router support rather than muck about getting down to thickness.
You sir, are a world heritage treasure! Thanks for all you do! And thanks to your son and team of videographers for the outstanding footage!
The right tools for the job and the right attitude all combined with the skill of a master. A joy to watch. Thanks a lot.
You're such a legend for sharing these techniques, Paul.
It's not what you earn that makes a man, it's what you give. Super generous. Merci.
I never got the chance to spend time with my grandpas before they passed away. I wish I could have learned from them the same way I'm learning from you. Thanks gramps!
"and it's all yours, go ahead and practice it, and you will have tenon making down for the rest of your life" this is what i love about these videos. There is a tradition of master craftsmen being closemouthed and secretive, but here one of the best just wishes to pass on the craft to those who care to learn. Thank . you.
When I started wood working as a kid, my dad told me wood working is using common sense to work things out, this method proves he was right,
Great video. And I've been woodworking for 20 years and still learning from videos like this, it's what it's all about.👍
Very good work. I am at an age where the noise of industry can be left at the job site. The quiet chisel and plane brings back the joy in woodworking classic style.
as a retired furniture maker who just loves youtube for different new ideas, i can honestly say using the the router to mark the edges is brilliance.
Great tutorial Paul, thanks mate.
I've watched this several times and it is solid gold. Thanks Paul.
I have lost count of how many times I have watched this video, and still it is always a pleasure. Thank's again Paul.
Love it.
Paul, what a gift you have given woodworkers with this technique! THANK YOU.
Beautifully planed & executed. Elegant in its simplicity! A bow to thank the Master.
Tis a thing of beauty! Sat here programming for a living, with this on in the background... I love it!!
It's hypnotic to watch Paul work the wood. Thank you for sharing.
Wonderful stuff. Never ever tire of watching Paul..
It's so wonderful to see this amount enthusiasm even after so many years. Thank you for the inspiration and advice, Mr. Sellers.
A joy too watch thank you.
That’s brilliant how simple and self-ensuring the method is.
Amazing as always, Paul!
Thank you for passing on techniques such as this with such dedication to simplicity and quality.
Cheers from Brazil.
Mate that's fantastic Paul. Thanks heaps for putting in the time to teach!
Holy crap! That alone is worth the price of admission.
Mr. Sellers, you are a genius! You have opened the door for me to a world of working wood "unplugged". I have two of your great books ( "Essential Woodworking Hand Tools" and "Working Wood") and the DVD set "Using and Sharpening Essential Woodworking Hand Tools". I cannot thank you enough.
Bloody brilliant, reminds me of one of my lecturers who was another master of his craft, I felt like I was back at college learning brickwork for a while. thanks Paul.
MR. Sellers.....you are the man! Thanks for all you do for use weekend woodworkers.
A really intelligent way to make sure the mortise is at the perfect position and has the right dimensions. Thank you Paul!
Thank you Paul for another wonderfully instructive technique and presentation!
Thank you Paul for sharing your method of precise mortise and tenon joinery - well done.
Thank you Paul for your generous heart, sharing your wisdom with the new generations. God bless you.
Thank you Paul, that was unquestionably the most valuable and impressive example of ingenuity and skill that I have ever seen . The longest video I have ever watched , and shall watch again.
You have given all of us out 'ere something priceless
I watched and now I am both excited and relaxed! Wonderful! Thanks!
Your tutorials are so great. I think you explain and demonstrate whatever method you are teaching better than anyone else. I have yet to make a mortise and tenon joint and I will definitely use your method. You, sir, are brilliant!
Paul, you've improved my woodworking abilities 100%! Thanks for all your instructions and keep up the good work.
Thank you for sharing this. You have a true teacher's approach. Finding a way to make your students more successful; what a great way to teach!
I love the technique. As always, I feel like I can conquer the world of woodworking after watching your videos.
EXCELLENT!!! and...... BRILLIANT!!!!!
Thank you Mr. Sellers!
It’s very impressive that you can show a new method in 2017 for a very old joinery technique. Your craft is superb, keep up the good work.
Brilliant & now I can't wait to try a Mortise & Tenon my self
Brilliant !! you are a accomplished master of woodworking, my respect to you sir and thank you for teaching all this great techniques.
Focused thought on how to make the blades go where we want is what makes this craft so fascinating. Using two router planes so the setting of the finish work makes so much sense. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and being so inspiring.
Brilliant - Awesome and Simple but oh so Effective! Makes a novice / wannabe woodworker believe he or she can really do this.
@weh375xen ... AMEN to THAT!!! :-D
You can do this! Practice and practice until it's perfect!
Simple and effective. It works, which is the most important thing. If it offends a "purist". Tough luck.
Thank you so much for the great detail you always provide. It is a joy to watch such perfection.
wow Paul your so very very generous to the hand tool woodworkers may I on behalf of all of us say a very very big thank you .
you inspire me to get in the workshop and its fantastic for being disabled it get me exercise and mental stimulation .
pete
Absolutely amazing, thanks Paul for another great lesson!
Simply beautiful work. Looking forward to trying this on my first workbench!
Excellent Paul. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Thanks Paul as always. A great gift to a novice like me. I have a loose fitting tenon that im trying to fix. Im going to start again with this method. Thank you sir!
Paul you are a magician! I enjoy your videos immensely. Thank you so much.
When I grow up... I'll still want to be like you... Making perfection look easy! Thanks a lot from very confined northern Lower Canada
I love this idea of retaining a planing guide/reference, feel like it would be really useful for longer joints
This is great, fantastic method for those us that don't get enough woodworking practise to learn this joint through and through. Many thanks Paul
Thanks very much. I will use it for the rest of my woodworking life, as I have many things you have taught. Thanks for sharing your talents.
Simply great. Old school. Thank You.
Paul, you are my favorite. Thank you for your help!
Another great tutorial, and with perfect timing as I have just started making a console table and will try this technique on the aprons and legs. Thanks.
Exquisite craftmanship. A wonderful lesson in joinery.
If ever a woodworking tutorial deserved a billion views, this is the one.
That is brilliant Dr. Paul, can’t wait to do it!
Thank you Oh so much Mister Sellers. You've actually managed to make me think I might succeed in doing this !
Such a great learning experience and a joy to watch.
This is a superb method for the people like me I can never make tenon or mortise straight ever I will definitely try this method thanks for sharing this video
Great tutorial. Thank you for showing how it’s done!
Using the router plane to make your knife walls is a wonderful idea, and so is leaving a shoulder to register with.
Paul, I have been watching your videos for some time now and have learned much from watching your work patterns. Thank you for what you do! I just completed a desk for my daughter designed to fit her apartment. Completely electricity-free! From sizing the raw lumber to the dovetailed cabinet to the mortices and tenons...all hand done! Thanks, Paul!
Love wood working!..Thank you for the great videos! It is great to feel the passion you've had for this wonderful trade!
Priceless instruction. TY Mr. Sellers.
Outstanding Paul, clear and concise, many thanks.
Mr. Sellers, thank you very much for this and all the other teaching videos you have in your channel. They are amazing. Although I have power tools, I reaIy enjoy working with hand tools. Take longer but the joy is incredible. I have always love woodworking and now that I´m retired I builded a shop in my farm to enjoy what I love more; Family, life in the farm and woodworking. My best regards to you from Panamá Sir.
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. Relaxing to watch as well as educational.
I've tried it, and I love it! I've struggled with mortise and tenons, and this method made them so much better. Still not perfect, but with some practice I think I'll have it. Thanks for sharing!
Nicely done. Thank you for this neat little gift.
Thank you for sharing this method! It is simple and perfect!
I used to own a boat which had been built in Devon. The steps into the cabin were angled, probably 60 degrees or so. The joiner had made through tenons for each step and they were perfect, immaculate, flawless. If I can manage the same before my time is up I'll be happy. Excellent instruction as always Paul. Thank you.
Fantastic, Mr. Sellers!
Paul
If I could give you a thousand thumbs up, I would.
This is probably the best ever method for a tenon and mortise fitting that I've ever seen.
Thanks for this video, I'll treasure it in my mind.
Great methode Paul, really nice! Can't wait to give it a try. Thank you for sharing this with us!
thanks Paul . absolutely wonderful way to get it right first time
You are the best! I am learning a lot with you. Thanks from Brazil.
Mr Seller is the best online teacher i ever seen.. So patient, gentle and very clever 👍👍 thankyou verymuch Sir 🙏
You do not have to have two routers to do this. You can use the one router and reset after the depth lines are marked. In this case you will rough down all of the cheeks and then, when all are roughed down, reset the depth according to the depth line and finish off to depth.
Paul Sellers Dear Paul with all the respect, please let us to use two or even better three hand routers and enjoy this project the most! Cheers
Paul- How did you determine the depth of the Router to make the shoulder markings? Did you take the width of the board, subtract the thickness of the desired tenon, and then divide by 2 to get the depth of the router plane chisel?
The chisel width determines the general size of tenon and mortise. In this method we actually ignore the dead width of the chisel and 1-2mm. In other words we set the router cutting edge to about 1/2 to 1mm shy of dead on so that we leave meat (wood) on the walls of the mortise and the face of the tenon. The last skim with the router surface planes the tenon on both cheeks and the pare cuts with the wider (1") chisel surfaces the inside walls of the mortise by using the guide to reference the face of the chisel as it progresses down into and along the walls.
I see, thank you!
Thanks, Paul. Im starting the workbench project from your book. Now I know I'll get the joints perfect, but I don't have 3 routers. I think I'll use a poor mans routers for the first passes, keep my Stanley set in one place for the entire operation. Another possibility, I could stick a shim to my router base, then peel it off for the final pass.
it’s wonderful to watch you. I love that you love it all so much.
what a great technique, thanks for the demonstration
Thanks, Paul. Brilliant, as always!!
Thank you very much, a great piece of instruction, well presented, just what I need to improve my technique.
What a delight to see someone call the correct tool a ‘router’! I’m a lifelong collector and user of routers and chisels dating back to 16th C. My current project is a farm house, 6 out buildings and a 60,000 sq’ dairy barn built in 1904. They’ve been horribly abused and scavenged so I bought a turn of C lumber mill, wood lot acreage and brought all my tools to restore it all asking only tools that existed when the buildings were built. 😁
Paul??? The Dude!!! That was simply The Best!!!!!
It's like poetry! Beautiful.
Great informative video -,the forgotten power of hand tools in the right hands!
There is no other word. Just AMAZING !!!
