Hi all, has anyone attempted this joint? I know the basics of how it's produced, cutting a notch in the seat, running a rebate cutter around the notch and a matching round over bit over the leg, but does anyone have any hints and tips to get the fit as perfect as possible?

The measurements in these plans can't be trusted (found that out the hard way!) But there's some useful information in there about the joint I think you are taking about. This was my finished effort.

A previous member, Philly of Philly's planes fame made one a few years back and I believe it was well documented on here. If you can't find it he also has a blog / website called phillesville, you could try there. It's not really my style of furniture but I can only admire the skill that goes into it. Good luck I hope you find what you need.

Hi Madge. Not sure if you are still interested but I have been posting a Sam Maloof style build WIP that might answer some of your questions.
