   Hey Tom,

   I chose ‘other’ because of a pet peeve of mine. I use ‘floating’ tenons, not ‘loose’ tenons. Loose tenons are just bad joinery.

   My 2¢
   Tom

   Ahhh, but, once the tenons are locked into place with glue, do they still float?

   Perhaps a non-integral tenon would be more appropriate?
