Foolproof Angled Mortise and Tenon Layout - ridiculously EASY!!!

In this video I demonstrate to you how to layout an angled mortise and tenon using a traditional Chinese woodworking marking paired with an offset plate. The method is literally foolproof. The offset plate was inspired to me while I was making a 4 leg 8 splay (四腿八叉) style of stool. With the of attachment I am able to layout the mortise on the top surface, the mortise on the bottom, and the tenon using a single set of measurements.

Checkout the links below where I show you how to make a variety of traditional Chinese woodworking tools.
