Have a great birthday, Ron!

Just a WAG... The square end of the mortise may be compromised. A small amount of schmutz may turn the square end to a chamfer. It wouldn't take much to keep the tenon from entering fully. May even be difficult to see.

As long as she doesn't have to smell the smoke, which bothers her, she tolerates me.

Nope. Once a liberty is yielded, it is not returned.

Whew!  You had me worried for a moment, Ron.   I hope the move and all the changes are ONLY for the better. I also hope you find plenty of time for pipe making. Pete

(Hermit must be a northsider... or he would have said Sox.) Welcome aboard!

Never stop trying to improve. Even if no one else sees the flaw, you will. So, next time you do better. Think of the feeling when you will finally say "That is good" because it meets your ever increasing standards. The difference between a craftsman and a piece-worker.
