Thanks Matt. I’ve found a method that works for me. If I cut the mortise first (based on whatever size chisel I can find) and then trim the tenon to fit in it, I can get the joint more or less gap-free. I need luck on my side, but this time I got lucky on all four corners (-:
I’m trying to decide whether to round-off the ends of the tenons (opinions welcome!), but I think the chamfering on the frame itself looks OK so I’ll keep that.
I’m not intending to glue the joints, I’ll just dowel them with mulberry sticks and call it good.
