I use pegged mortise and tenon joinery quite a bit. I like the strength and like the look. It's been pretty tough finding dowel stock for the last year or so. The stuff that's available is usually only in Red Oak and Poplar and the size and quality is all over the map.
I was pleased to see that LN has their dowel plates available again and am looking forward to receiving mine. Going forward I'll make my own using the wood I want. Come on Brown Truck!
