The joint is design to eliminate end grain to end grain joinery, not really for hiding end grain. By adding a mortise and tenon, it gives us a long grain to long grain joinery which is much stronger. At 1:00 Yeung explains the two type of joinery. One thru and one blind. It's a matter of preference. The thru miter and mortise joint is very common in Chinese furniture. Thanks for watching and for your comment.

I just watched this video again several years later because I randomly thought about it. Absolutely awesome/precise joinery.

For someone like myself, a total newcomer to woodworking, this is the perfect video. Thank you.

This was a very instructional video. Thank you for taking the time to explain each cut. I like this joint a lot.

An excellent Video! To the point, no waisted time! You explained the process and why the Why is they key to learning because if one learns the why! They have the answers to when the process did not work for them.

I've seen this joint in projects but never thought I would try it. After watching this video I feel I can do it. Great explanation.

Thankyou for your informative video. I have used this joint now a couple of times in different projects and it is nothing short of excellent. Your instruction is easy to follow and making this joint is now simple and quick. The joint itself is extremely strong. Thanks again for sharing...10 thumbs up

Very well done educational video. I always refer back to this channel when doing a project to apply some of the ideas and techniques you teach. Thank you for your efforts.

I have never trusted the strength of a plain 45 degree but joint. This mortise and tenon miter joint looks very strong and I will try to do it following the precise instructions shown in this video. Thanks for posting.

That was awesome! Great joint and the skill/technique was presented well. That joint is not going to come apart. I appreciated the use of power and hand tools, a true "hybrid" woodworker. Thanks for posting!

Thank you so much for taking the time to post video. This is THE JOINT I have dreamed of making and now I can give it a try......

What an awesome video! That is the best looking joint I have ever seen. Thank you so much for sharing.

Yeung is out of the country and knowing how he works, I'll answer for him. We use the Forrest WWII #1 grind flat top blade for joinery here at the school, Yeung prefers this blade because it does not leave scoring marks. It's flat and smooth all the way across which makes a slightly better joint. Because it's a thru tenon we prefer this blade. For close M&T joint, dado set would be much quicker and preferred. Sorry for delay response. Thanks so much for watching.

Hello Mr. Chan. I just read your book. The first type of joinery I made after reading your book was to make tendon using the jig you described. Wow, talking about a simple jig to make and a perfectly fitted tendons in no time at all. Thank you very much.

Great video! I could watch this over and over.

Cool joint. Very mechanically sound, compared to other miters. Thank you for the video and thank you for sharing your woodworking.

The strongest picture frame in existence without any mechanical fasteners. You couldn’t get that kind of strength even if it was a solid piece of wood!

That was truly amazing. You made it look so easy.

Very thorough, gorgeous joint.

This is awesome - THANKS for taking out the time to make this video.

Perfect execution! Thank you.

Nice joint, great presentation. Thank you!

very professional and informative. Great video....great joint!

This is a bit simpler than Sellers' mitered tenon joint. I am a hand-tool worker, but I like this very much. Like the masters, you make something difficult look easy. Thank you, and well-done.

Amazing joint!!! Great job with the explanation.

Great learning video...outstanding teacher!

Very well thought out video. Easy to follow and understand. Excellent craftsmanship.Please keep making these videos. I really learned alot and enjoyed watching. Thank You.

Thank you for the great video. Beautiful work and informative.

You are very smart skilled carpenter. Thank you.

Very clear explanation. Great work.

Well explained, great joint, thank you.

wow I remember my father had collected old school Chinese windows with these mortise tenon joints...even as a teenager I knew the joinery where special. then again, a 1932 for 5 window is pretty rare too:) thx for this

Very neatly done, thank you!

Excellent video, thanks so much!

Thanks for the great video Yeung. I have your book and would like to see more of your techniques in video form. When my schedule allows I will be taking one of your classes at William's school. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for a wonderful video, Yeung! I'm going to try a few of these this week :-)

Thanks for the tips! Can't wait to try it!

Wow!! That is awesome, thank you so much for sharing. One day I hope to have enough talent to attempt to make that joint.

This is really a wonderful joint. I think I will try it. Hope it comes out like this one did.

Excellent presentation!

great instruction for a great joint.

Sorry to hear about your mother passing. I lost my mother with in the last year also. I really enjoy your videos. Howard

Thank you for the details explanation. Learnt a lot :)

Genius. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for this lesson.

great video; excellent teacher!

This should make you happy,I just ordered a Lamello biscuit joiner,your post talked me right into it.lol

very nicely done sir. good video. keep them coming. thanks

very good video, well explained. Thank you

Excellent tutorial!

Excellent video

Beautiful video! Thank you!

Nicely done. I've been looking at different methods to do this so that I can make a glass door. The mortise & tenon is strong to hold the weight of the glass and the mitered joint gives a more finished appearance. The through tenon demonstrates mastery of making the joint. If you don't want to see the end of the tenon then you can drill the mortise shorter and trim down the tenon. Personally, I like to see through tenons, though.

Excellent, merci beaucoup.

Fantastic! Thank you!

Excellent, thanks.

Very well explained thank you

Tthat's an extremely nice shop!

Very Nice!!!

Very clever,thanks

Smart techniques. Thanks.

Awesome Thank you!

Machine joints take a lot of skill to make right. Every apprentice I have ever had says they are going to only do hand work (we just nod our heads and think BS kid). They learn how both machine and hand work go together by the time we turn them out. Feel free to do all hand work yourself, but don't knock what they guy is showing.

beautiful,. i love to learn more.

Great video! Thank You!

Well done!

so logical, thank you so much!

I have read about this joint but it wasnt explained as well as here. thanks for the info.

Probably a point can be made about choosing the "outside edge" base on the direction of the wood grain. This makes a difference when you do the clean up. Great how one can clean up the joint with the chisel by just holding it by hand and having to chisel away from the body.

very nice! i have to try this

very nice joint thanks for the vid on this

great vid

That was very interesting. Ive just started to make videos of my joinery skills.

The first cut is heavy and the sawblade can wobble a little due to the load. That second trimming cut is not much load for the saw so it cuts nice and true.

Thanks for sharing..

Thanks for this video.

People do still do hand work, but it takes many hours of practice. This is More for the masses who don't have time. Pros don't make much money unless we use machinery. I had a client who wanted a large project made with ZERO machinery (some karma thing) and it cost her 5x what it would have.

Very good

thank you

I gotta try this technique....

Man I know the video is old but hopefully someone can comment. When cutting the tenon do you have to hit the stop block on your last cut or could you make your shoulder cut at the block your first cut and work out? Any problems or disadvantages that I am missing?

What is the source of your adjustable square?

Will you do a video on Triple-Lap from your book Classi Jints with Power Tools.

I don’t understand why your videos don’t have as much views as the other channel using your methods or why those channels are not giving you the credit you clearly deserve.

knowledge

Is there anyway to make the mortise besides using the machine? I used drill but stuck at the corner of mortise which left some radius not clean up. Any suggestion how to fix the left over radius on four corners?

because we love playing with our power tools,duh

You are right I have no Skill tools.LMAO

Muito bom;essa furadeira é especial para esse tipo de broca?

Having said that the joint design was meant to eliminate end grain showing, why did the mortice need to go right through? Was this for wedging purposes, if not, surely the mortice could have been stopped say about 5mm from the outer edge assuming the tenon was a tight fit.

nice seppele head 😂😂😂😂

For years i belive that germans are best and more acurate in all jobs ... but now i think more and more to the japanese people are best ... they makes things more acurate and more professional then other countries ... of course the swiss people makes greater watches :P Nice job , good explanation almoust for dummies , but good quality theaching ! Keet these videos going Mister Ng !

This is ok, but where i am. You can't even buy a table saw.So it's no good for me.

why dont people do joints by hand any more

chisels

chisel

Wow that is impressive,all bow down to mfcman2k7,he is the great one.Well then I suggest you only buy and use things made completely by hand,welcome to the stone ages,ROFLMAO Please show me the monkey that can do 99% of the joints using power tools,that should be really interesting.

no skill in joinery no more its all machines that do it for you

So a table saw with special miter sled jig. Mortising machine. Band saw and at least an hour for each joint. No thx.
