In fact, it is probably a better view that if I were standing right beside you.
Thanks again for showing us another method that seems intimidating, until I see you do it in repetition like that.

I can’t imagine doing it any other way if you have even moderately straight grain. One of my favorite tools is my big timber framing chisel I use for a slick. Evens up tenon faces wonderfully.

Have just tried it out and works very well, fun too, will definitely be doing tenons this way more often.
