I have just went back to the methods i have used in the past, stupidly time consuming, think I spent 5 hours today getting the joints correct - there has to be a better way, I would love to see a cabnet maker of yester year do these legs, had to of had a better yechnique


Getting the tennon cut properly with good shoulders is not that difficult

But it is not as simple as that, these legs have to hold the table level, and just 1 dgree out (which is tiny for woodworking) means the height is out by 8mm, so after I have made a nice fitting joint, I then have to keep adjusting it to get the height correct - all the time the joint gets slacker and slacker

and getting them level - this seems mad as well.
