Oh, you are mistaking me for someone who has actually built a chair. All
I've done is read about it! ;-)

Mark,

Actually I have the Miller book and had referenced it a lot while I made
my
test chair. However since I simplified the M/T on the test chair by
angleing the faces of the legs, I didn't have a need for the router jig.
I
could easily make simple angle tenons with the table saw/dado. I had
forgotten about the compound angle discussion in the book and the router
jig.

It looks like I now need to decide whether I want to use a router jig for
compound angle tenons into perpendicular leg mortises, or loose tenons
into
mortises angled to be in-line with the rails. Any thoughts on the matter?

Thanks,
Bob

Get "Chairmaking and Design" by Jeff Miller. It's a very well written
book.
Basically the entire book is the answer to your question.

My local library had it, so you might want to check there, also. It is
one
of the very few books that I read from the library and has very, very
seriously considered purchasing.
