Well, it’s pretty evident that pocket screws are the preferred method for most. However, the older, tried-and-true mortise and tenon is still practiced by about one in five woodworkers!
The only method listed under other was by Marc Spagnulo – that lucky duck uses the Festool Domino.
Dare I be the first one to say it?
DOMINOS!!! 🙂
Oh, of COURSE! How could I forget the Domino!
Lemme go smack my forehead! 😀
Tom, I went with the pocket screws, assuming these were for regular cabinets and not a furniture piece that happened to involve faceframes. If it is a furniture piece then I’d go with mortise and tenon.
And lots of brad nails:D
