Quick-tip I learned while doing some research on mallet handles, but it really applies to any through mortise & tenon joint. To eliminate the chance of the wedge causing a crack along the grain, drill a stress relief hole at the bottom of each slot. Works great! #mortiseandtenon #woodworking #carpentry #walnut #hickory #mallet #reddeer #canada
