Mortise Across Grain

dimanche 5 octobre 2014

I can't seem to find much about this, although I know it is done all the time.



i want to join the legs to a slab coffee table using M/T joinery. This will at some point require me to cut mortises perpendicular to the grain of the wood.



What at is the most efficient way of doing this? I have tried it with a only a chisel with ghastly (but useable) results.



I was was thinking about using a drill to remove the majority of the waste, then paring the sides with a chisel, then smoothing the bottom with a router plane. Anyone have any feedback on this approach?



im looking for any advice or feedback on this very commonly used joint.



cheers,

luke
