Not sure what you were thinking when you first conceived of this video -- "stop making mortises so complicated" implies we're going to be introduced to a simple and readily accessible method that any woodworker can use. But then you proceeded to show tenons being cut by your Shaper Origin, an expensive and exotic tool that most woodworkers don't have and may not want to invest in. Poor.
I own both dominoes and a very large Mortiser. I can’t use the mortise much because of the strain it puts on my shoulders; so, dominos, it is. However, if you don’t feel like taking out a second mortgage, there is a way that I think is easier. Use the double fence method to cut the mortise in both the stile and rail (in other words, both pieces). Then make a loose tenon to fit. The advantage of this method is that you can make mistakes on that loose tenon (oh dear, cut too narrow or too short) and just remake the tenon whilst not sacrificing the stile or rail. Make loose tenons any away you want and, if you want to be pedantic, file those ends round to fit the mortise shape; I rarely bother because the real strength doesn’t come from the tight fit of the ends but the long glue joints of the sides. Hope that helps someone
Hi, As a beginner woodworkers I have been watching quite a few videos on UA-cam and I learn something from 95% of them and this one, along with the one demonstrating a simple jig on the table saw were great and easy to follow. I've subscribed to your channel so I can have a look at your other videos and as I hope to build furniture in the future, learn from you. Thanks and keep up the great content👍🇬🇧🇺🇲
Pretty cool idea to use the fence on both sides, thanks! I would probably just cut the tenons on the table saw and have them be square rather than round
This is too complicate for me. I chiseled out a mortise and tenon quickly. Far easier to set up and it doesn't take much effort as long as the chisel is sharp enough.
two fences on a router. NICE.....ok I have the Bosch 1617, but will look to buy a second fence and hook it to the other side of the guide rails and give this a try. Really simple tip. Thank you!
I dearly miss having the room to have a radial arm saw in the shop. It was far and away the best, quickest way to make tenons and half laps not to mention dados for shelves. However the sliding table on my new Harvey table saw might be even better.
First time to see your channel. I doubt I'll ever do this, but it's really interesting to *Know* how things are done, both historically and in more modern ways. Enjoyed this video and subscribed. Thanks.
Somewhere between the tenoning jig video and here, it looks like a little elf rounded over the corners of that tenon. What's that step? Leave them out on the front porch overnight?
Ok, I'll be honest. I initially have this a thumbs down because i didn't really get anything out of it and felt it was click bait... Which some of it is, but then i needed help figuring out how to make some mortises for beds I'm making. I rewatched this and the trick with the router was very helpful.
The problem with all those types of jig that use routers, is that the tenons are never very long. They're only suitable for smaller projects. Decent video and channel but I prefer to use a mortiser with square chisel and inbuilt auger and cut proper/traditional tenons as long as I need.
First you take the plunge. Then you take the rounding bit with the same radius and round a flat piece of wood along the grain (or plywood) that fits the groove you just cut. Make another cut. Join. Add glue.
Yup! lay em out, rout em out and dado the tenons on the table saw. Though I've always squared up my mortise with a chisel. But we all have a own flourish. Good tips!
Two pieces of wood on bottom of router is what I do. I recently bought some acrylic so i can make an adjustable width and see through it. Basically just two slots on each side that can adjust for width. The depth I keep at a few inches as it helps with stability using a larger router. I'm using a 2.5 hp bosch, thing is heavy. The great thing is people will say "Just get a domino" but I will tell you this - if you have a large project and have a lot of mortices to cut, you just arrange the pieces by size and batch them out. Then you slide the adjuster and route the next set, and so on. Would a domino be faster? YES. It's literally mark the top, set the domino to height needed and go. The flow for the router is basically, get it out, and you can either use some double sided tape (I like spectre tape, thinner than that stupid 3m stuff but it's more expensive) and attach a couple pieces of wood. Find your center on bit and go to town. The bottom line is if you are a production shop, make money - then time is money - then get a domino. The domino is much faster and if you're saving many hours a week, then it's literally paying for itself. I don't own festool products, and that's not because I don't want certain ones, it's only because It's a want, not a need :)
Yeah, I checked the price of a Shaper Origin (USD3599), and it's out of my budget, but I do have a power rack, barbell, and set of plates that I paid USD6,000 for, so maybe it evens out in the end.
I don’t know why there aren’t more commercial guides that that available for all routers! I have been looking for something with two adjustable fences, and festool has one for their routers and then there’s a couple people making kind of bulky versions on Etsy. Seems like a real gap in the market.
Another wonderful video as usual, though I am not a fan of that shapper thing, I'm old school and I don't believe CNC or some tool that does the work for you to be considered true woodworking. To me, handcrafted means by hand, not by machine. Don't take that personally, what you do and how you do it is definitely spectacular in eery way.
I appreciate the kind words and I understand your viewpoint. I held a similar one for many years in fact. But with the need to make money as a professional I found that hand cutting every tenon and hand chopping every mortise didn't make for much of an end profit. But don't worry, I've got a hand tool only joint video coming down the road shortly 😎
I think I will upload a video on “Quick, Dirty and easy was to beat rush hour traffic” I start off by going to my at home helo-deck, but I qualify everything by saying, “I know, I am using a helicopter…”
I am glad one of my iron clad trade rules protects me against you now that I am hobby performing trades and not contracting. "Master the Hand Tools before you step up to power" (this teaches you accurate measuring, layout, required steps and order of steps, and patience). If it wasn't for this rule I would have both those tools in a cart right now. Whew. And for the Sensitive folks "Un-Complicated" does not mean cheap or without tools. I have found in 40+ years of working your vices always outspend your tools, so adjust accordingly.
Actually that is very efficient just do a long tennon and cut the pieces, have done that some times and the mortises can be done with just one fence is just a matter of be carefull of which face is your reference for the fence on each piece to have a perfect fit even if your mortise is not perfectly centered.
Festool makes good stuff, but I absolutely HATE that router. That asymetrical handle design is uncomfortable, and cumbersome. It's even worse than the handle on the Kapex
The internet brings out all the people we normally avoid when it comes to these things, and we all know why. It seems like you're in the normal majority of us who believe that an imperfect joint done with good power tools is good enough to last a long time, and good enough is, well.. it's good enough. People don't keep new furniture for multiple generations anymore, because the styles and tastes change every decade. So making something that'll last 50 years only means it'll be more difficult to haul to the dump one day.
If you can afford Festool, you can afford a morticing machine. Quiet, accurate, square ends. For the tenon: a band saw, dado, mitre saw, router, hand saw; any will do, but finish off with a router plane. We all do it differently.
We all do it differently indeed. I do own a hollow chisel mortiser and use it on occasion, but with a stopped mortise like this I don’t mind a rounded mortise.
To me thus just shows how the real skill is being lost to automation just like other industries. As another points out, just as well have done it with dominos
I love your channel, but I stopped watching when you pulled out the Shaper. With the title of "STOP Making Mortises So Complicated!", it is click-bait, that doesn't deliver. I will keep watching your other videos, but you get a thumbs down for this "trap".
That's just clickbait. I have never made a mortise and know exactly as much as I knew before watching this video. Just a hipster trying to make some dough on UA-cam. Annoying.
This guy who thinks his a big shot should let people do as they please not as he wants still haven't found a person who doesn't make mistakes who are far better than this so called carpenter sure hope you stop judging people, pray that God Almighty gives you peace.Bottom line
I'm sorry, but you spent the first half of the video talking about "everyday woodworkers" which is cool because I tire of the youtubers that have sold out. Then you pulled out a Shaper Origin? Hardly a tool for everyday woodworkers. I assume you've received compensation?
there's a simpler way which involves two short machine screws, some washers and two bearings to make a self centring jig using two* of the machined holes in the router base. (*the two which are lined up with the centre of the cutter) :)
This is not a typical router. What kind of machine is this? Most of us don’t own this machine. Looks like a very expensive plunge router. OK, after looking in the description, yes, it’s a $700 machine. That’s why mortises are complicated. Unless you own a very expensive machine. Definitely not DIY cheap. This also takes no skill. People who use machines like these to do mortises and tenons have virtually no skillset whatsoever for cutting them freehand. Oh well, to each his own I guess.
A face-palm moment for me - you showed the option for a router where you simply taped a secondary fence to the base of the router - KISS - keep it simple stupid - it’s what I keep telling myself when my brain wants to supercharge it all. Thanks for a great video ! New subby here.
Showing one their cabinets and showing one how to build their cabinets are not synonymous. Ratings always increase when one concentrates on their audiences education.
With all due respect, it wasn’t helpful. We all have a router but what ever that other machine was, probably 95% of don’t own. So, we learned how to do half of the job (the easy part) and left without any information and the second half.
Another carpenter who goes to the gym and introduces us to the Festool brand. Leaving aside the fact that it's clickbait. Does he have the impression that his audience is women?
Amazing precision, but perhaps good for people who own such machines... so respectfully, this video has nothing to do with "simple." Those who own such machines probably don't need a video.
I made a 1-9/16" deep mortise in a couple of doors the entire width of the door for a automatic drop down seal. Used my large Bosch router with two Bosch router edge guides, similar to the Festool setup in this vid and took three passes, and it was a breeze. All of my worries of buying an expensive one-time use edge router bit big enough and wide enough to make the groove, slipping and screwing up those rift white oak doors vanished. I did make a jig with stops for the mortised pocket door handles and practiced first! I'd never done a mortise with a router before and it sure beats forstner bits and chisels!
Bro, I’m here trying to build and sell enough stuff to buy a domino in cash and you bust out a HAND-HELD CNC machine. Hand held. CNC. I’ll just save my money for the belt-worn CNC laser that just dices stuff while you stand there.
Lot of complainers in the comments. I actually really appreciate both methods used here. Refreshing to see someone applying their diverse tools and not just working for the purpose of a tutorial
I'm getting a good laugh at some of the comments here, some people just cant be helped. Great video buddy I use the plung router myself but I'm going to try that trim router idea for the crack.
Great explanation, you're a person of details! FYI, the word myriad means 'thousands of', therefore you don't need to say 'myriad of', just 'myriad' ie 'There's myriad ways to do this'. Thought I'd let you know as details always matter!
After watching this video, I checked my routers and their different bases to see if I could do the same thing with the double fences. It turns out there is at least one of my router bases that will allow me to do that. It seems like it should be fun to try.

Great video. As hobbyist, I really appreciate them.
This week’s myriad of “myriad” count = 2
Hahaha I may lean on myriad a little too heavily... 😂
I didn’t realize I needed a shaper origin… until now 😀😀😀
I went to save one in my buy myself a present list later on Amazon, only to find out I already had it in there. Must be destiny.
Just wish I could shake your hand. The inspiration your content has given me, amazeballs! Truly, thank you!
I genuinely appreciate that, my friend. Perhaps one day we’ll indeed get to shake hands 👊

Stop making mortises so complicated! Just use the Shaper Origin ! lol
Pretty cool idea to use the fence on both sides, thanks! I would probably just cut the tenons on the table saw and have them be square rather than round

This is too complicate for me. I chiseled out a mortise and tenon quickly. Far easier to set up and it doesn't take much effort as long as the chisel is sharp enough.
@@chaselee86 yeah, I'd do it with chisels too. Wouldn't bother set up the machines unless I have to make a dozen of them.
I stopped watching at the Shaper Origin. Might as well have showed me how to cut a tenon with a lightsaber.

When you pulled out the SO I nearly fell out of my chair. I use mine for tenons a lot so it was good to see others who use it in their work. Bravo!
I trust you mean when I pulled out the Origin haha but yes, it's a brilliant machine!
@@ENCurtis we toss around SO in reference to the Shaper Origin in the Shaper User Group forum.
What's an SO?
I dearly miss having the room to have a radial arm saw in the shop. It was far and away the best, quickest way to make tenons and half laps not to mention dados for shelves. However the sliding table on my new Harvey table saw might be even better.
I wonder if you could make jig that is basically a template that you run a router with a guide bushing through.
First time to see your channel. I doubt I'll ever do this, but it's really interesting to *Know* how things are done, both historically and in more modern ways. Enjoyed this video and subscribed. Thanks.
Nice, I really like the double fence idea. Heading out to the shop now to practice with my router. Another great video!
I only have simple power tools such as a hand drill and dremel. How can I cut a slot (for a bolt running) or a mortise using my household tools?
Somewhere between the tenoning jig video and here, it looks like a little elf rounded over the corners of that tenon.
What's that step? Leave them out on the front porch overnight?
Yes but don’t forget to leave the rasp out there too! Else they’ll just gnaw the tenon round and that never looks good. Plus, splinters.
Ok, I'll be honest. I initially have this a thumbs down because i didn't really get anything out of it and felt it was click bait... Which some of it is, but then i needed help figuring out how to make some mortises for beds I'm making. I rewatched this and the trick with the router was very helpful.
Ya, um "Let's cut some tenons on the this shaper origin" and then no instructions, just showing off biceps with grinding rock music playing.
Can you make a video on how to make tenons with rounded corners if not using the shaper machine?
The problem with all those types of jig that use routers, is that the tenons are never very long. They're only suitable for smaller projects. Decent video and channel but I prefer to use a mortiser with square chisel and inbuilt auger and cut proper/traditional tenons as long as I need.
Another great video, keep up the great work!
Thanks for your consistent support, Jeff. It's greatly appreciated 🙏
Can you tell me a little bit about that sick machine you just used To make tenons? Or a link to what it is.
Great video! You are absolutely right about people overthinking the whole process.
“Stop making mortises so complicated!! All you need is a Shaper Origin! It’s that easy!!”
Don't worry about the wrinkles, young fellow. You'll get used to them eventually. It's the aches & pains you should be concerned with.
😂 Touché.
This common man is just jealous of your router lol. But, i do love my Skil 2.5 hp router. Beautiful video sir.
Accurate 😂 and hey, if the tool works there ain’t nothing wrong with it!
The tressels look great, but the slab top isn't my cup of tea. The two fence router jig definitely looks handier than the edge guide version I have.
Rookie here. What would be the method of making those rounded tenons without the shaper?
Just using a simple rasp will do fine. You can see me do just that in the final table build. Video is called "Simplicity is the hardest thing to nail"
First you take the plunge. Then you take the rounding bit with the same radius and round a flat piece of wood along the grain (or plywood) that fits the groove you just cut. Make another cut. Join. Add glue.
Yup! lay em out, rout em out and dado the tenons on the table saw. Though I've always squared up my mortise with a chisel. But we all have a own flourish. Good tips!
Aint nothing wrong with a square mortise! On any exposed joinery I tend to square my corners, too.
Two pieces of wood on bottom of router is what I do. I recently bought some acrylic so i can make an adjustable width and see through it.

I'm getting a good laugh at some of the comments here, some people just cant be helped. Great video buddy I use the plung router myself but I'm going to try that trim router idea for the crack.
That's because the title of the video is just ridiculous. Fun to watch crazy expensive tools, but doesn't help the home hobbyist in the least.
Great explanation, you're a person of details! FYI, the word myriad means 'thousands of', therefore you don't need to say 'myriad of', just 'myriad' ie 'There's myriad ways to do this'. Thought I'd let you know as details always matter!
Thanks for that!
After watching this video, I checked my routers and their different bases to see if I could do the same thing with the double fences. It turns out there is at least one of my router bases that will allow me to do that. It seems like it should be fun to try.
I wish I could be 35 years young again 🫤

Try doubling that age! I am really slowing down but still at it.
If nothing new hurts when you get out of bed in the morning, it's going to be a good day.
HUGE Step up in video quality! Your skin looks fine too, lol.
Yes indeed! Huge is an understatement!! Just wait til next week when I actually learned how to adjust the settings... 😂
