Many years ago I made a comment when demonstrating at our local wood show that I would replace the conventional method of producing a tenon by inserting 'Floating' tenons and for a number of years I continued producin mortice and tenon joint using that method. 2011 I changed my way of thinking and came up with a simple Jig where I could produce the conventional Tenon with the router as the only tool used and I have been able to produce the tenon with one simple process in a period of 10 seconds. Not only routing the shape but also rounding the sides ready for insertion into the mortice which was also produced with the router. The method was taken to a second and third stage where Twin tenons and Triple tenons could also be produced. Observing a video on youtube where larger material was involved and required a quadrupple Tenon to be constructed as shown. Looking forward to getting into the shed to see the results of the method I have designed coming into action. As the single tenon I have produced in ten seconds then I hope to produce the four tenons in 1 minute start to finish in the same Jig. I will have to be on the lookout for a piece of material 55mm thick before I can begin but I am looking forward to the challenge. If I am unable to find large enough material I may redraw the instructions and use thinner material such as 40mm thick. I can see the advantage of such a joint adding greater strength to the joint to be made.
