Mine has the 90 degree fence which would get in the way of work clamped in a horizontal manner. I suppose you could modify or remove the fence for the long grain mortise but I never bothered. It's just as easy to use a router and an edge guide with the work secured to your bench. The trickiest part of the joint is the end grain mortise which does require a fixture.
The same router setup isn't always possible when the receiving mortise is inset from the edge. The distances are different therefore the edge guide needs to be adjusted. I also like the receiving side mortise deeper than the end grain mortise.

I've always avoided furniture because of my lack of mortising and tenon skill... Great video and very informative.
Thanks
Great demo and explanation of the loose tenon. A must watch for all woodworkers!
Fantastic jig ideas
Excellent instructional video Brian
Great demo!
This is the best tutorial I've seen on this subject. Thanks! By the way, those are the quietest power tools I've ever seen . Just kidding.
Nice job!!
carving some form of groove along the length of the tenon will also help with glue squeeze out, but would take more time.
thanks for sharing
Great demonstration of how the jig works! I’ve been meaning to make one of these for a long time. Why can’t the jig work for the long grain tenon?

Ahh, I see! Thanks!
Good video Brian! 👍😎JP
appropriate intro :)
For me loose tennons makes the most sense of using the router, same router setup for both pieces

You could rotate the fixture to place pieces in a horizontal position. That would allow longer pieces. Nice video in all respects.
