Nothing like face hewing dry white oak to get the blood flowing in the morning...
I think I'll make some pegs when I finish this side.
Thanks for your patience with us lately. We've been extremely busy the last couple of months finishing a big job and then moving our shop. We're beginning to get our feet back under us and we hope to start updating the blog with some sort of regularity.
Happy new year to all and stay tuned.
I recently had some reclaimed timbers in the shop that had been resawn on one face. The sawyer had sawn through the center of the pegs, giving a unique perspective into the anatomy of a mortise and tenon joint that was cut approximately 150 years ago.
Blind peg, slightly pointed on the tip, some side draw (probably inadvertent) is noticeable.
