The mortise and tenon is probably the most used and trusted joint in traditional woodworking. For me, making the two parts of the joint always follows a specific order — the mortise comes first, followed by a tenon to fit. Once the mortise is completed, the table saw or the router table will quickly give you an accurate tenon.

Step 4: Make the Mortise. On a smaller mortise, you would use a mortise chisel and just chop down into the mortise to obliterate the wood fibers.

Start with a chisel as wide (or nearly as wide) as the mortise ends and use it to square both ends of the hole. Then, clean up the side walls with the widest chisel that fits into the mortise. Keep the flat face of the chisel against the mortise wall for the ends and side walls as you work. Mortise and Tenon Methods. Method #1: Drill the mortise.

Mark the mortise length. Start by marking the rail width on the stile, then measure in 3⁄8 in. to locate the mortise ends. Set the mortise gauge using the chisel. Adjust the pins so the 1⁄4-in. chisel drops just inside them. Keep this setting for the whole process. Set the fence to center the mortise on the stock.

Insert the spacer. Spacer makes tenons of uniform thickness. The spacer should be a hair thinner than the width of the mortise plus the width of the sawkerf. 2. Cut the first cheek. Clamp the spacer in the jig and against the scrap stock in back. Adjust the jig to line up with the tenon mark, then cut the first cheek. 3.

About a year ago, I started fooling around with an idea to make hand-cut mortise-and-tenon joints a little easier. I came up with a pair of simple jigs that make it possible to cut - in conjunction with a good tenon saw and some mortise and paring chisels - accurate, repeatable joints by hand that rival those cut by machine. The jigs cut

The starting setup. Set the height of the spiral upcut bit to 9⁄16" (to accept a 1⁄2"-long tenon). Position the fence to locate the mortise on the workpiece.

Always cut the mortise first and then size the tenon to fit snugly. It's quicker and easier to adjust the dimensions of a tenon (as we'll show later) than to change a mortise. Establish the mortise width at 1 ⁄ 3 the workpiece thickness. This ratio results in a joint with plenty of strength in both the tenon and the sidewalls.

https://www.finewoodworking.com/2007/09/01/the-secret-to-perfect-mortise-and-tenons
Use a chisel to cut a slight downward bevel (no more than 1/32 in.) on the tenon shoulder. Remember to keep the outermost edge crisp. Undercut enough material for the shoulder to fit, but be careful not to take too much; a 1/32-in. bevel should be more than enough. Do this all the way around the shoulder and you will improve the fit of the joint.
