Similar tool for tenons.

Doesn't seem to leave room for glue.

I always thought a tight mortise a tenon, like dovetails, only needed
glue to keep them from slipping apart. The strength is in the joint.

When gluing up panels, is there room for glue? Not really.
You squeeze out what hasn't soaked into the wood.

I think the same can be said for M&T joints. You wipe on only enough
glue to soak in. I've seen many a study that breaks the myth of the
glue-staved joint.
