7-19 Floating Tenons
A “floating” tenon in a mitered corner
allows for a greater joint glue area at the inside of the corner. On
this mitred corner, the workpieces are mounted in the jig at 45˚
and the mortises routed. The floating tenon
➀
is routed on the
end of a vertically mounted scrap piece using the same guide and
then sawn off.

Routing bridle joints on the FMT Pro is simple. All the work-
pieces (with the exception of the mitered tenon)
➀
are mounted
vertically on the jig.

Select a guide that is greater in length than the workpiece
width
➀
by at least two bit diameters. Rout right through the
“vertical mortise”
➁
and across the tenon sides
➂
. The bit will
clear the edge of the workpiece before the guide pin reaches the
rounded part of the guide.
