Sorry for the confusing title, but that's my problem. I don't know what to call what I want to do.
I am going to be making raised panel oak doors for the kitchen soon, and I thought I would like to try to build them differently than the usual cope and stick on the router table. I want to do a mortise and tenon, on the framework, using loose tenons (maybe dowels). What I want to do is basically stick all the pieces, and cut the routed edges to make the corners fit. I have tried to find articles, videos, etc showing the process, but I always end up with info on making mitered CORNER doors, which I do not want. I want to say it is M&T with mitered stick, but that turns up nothing.
I want it to look just like I coped the rails, but the joint would actually have butt ends tenoned or dowelled.
I have the Fine WW DVD, and I can get hold of the WOODSMITH DVD, and lots of WOOD magazines, I just cannot figure out how to find info that I know has to be there.
Any help clearing the fog would be appreciated. If anyone has done this and has jigs, info or advice I would doubly appreciate it.
