Hi all,
I'm currently making a sash window from some Ash that I have.
I made a prototype in pine using the scribe/profile cutters that I have but without tennons.
I had planned to use tennons in the final version but the scribed joints seem very strong. I tried without success to break the joints in the prototype.
Has anyone built sash windows without using tennon joints. Could you rely on the scibed joint only? Other options I had thought of were to dowel or screw & plug. Any advice appreciated.
Each sash is 920mm * 600mm * 44mm
TIA
Mark
