I can lay them out on pieces of 3/4" stock with no issues, no rabbits, no rebate - and so presumably these pieces should mate too. Depth is key to get co-planar top surfaces.
I have Amana cope & stick bit that does cut a panel groove, but is the reversible ogee profile (1 bit can be 'inverted' to cut both rail and cope). I just checked, and I am fairly certain that leaving the 'groove' cutter off, and configuring the profile cutter as required, will result in the equivalent cuts of the pictured bit pair. Depth is key.
Why does Mr. Krawford need a panel groove or stub tenon? He has no panel. Tenon for strength? It's screwed/nailed/glued flat to a wall. I'd think that sufficient? ...Clearly, I'm missing something.
