Fox Wedged Mortise and Tenon Joint
Try your hand at this joint, but be prepared to destroy it to see how well you did!
The Fox Wedged mortise and tenon joint combines the stealth of the stub mortise and tenon, with a large degree of the strength of the wedged mortice and tenon. However the strength very much dependent on the correct wedge being prepared, so that the tenon ends are tight against the mortise ends.
Watch me prepare this joint, from the starting point of a well fitted stub mortise and tenon (a video for which is earlier in this series). Then watch as I saw the thing in half to reveal how it's gone together.
Thanks to Shawn, who tells me that in Japan this is called Jigoku-kusabi.
