I had built some cabinets last fall and finally started the doors this week. They are a simple flat panel/shaker style but the M&T is a first go for me. It's all done with a dado setup on the table saw. There are a total of 20 doors, with 1/2" overlay. I wanted to share this to let others know that no special jigs are needed to make doors using this method. After ripping the stiles and rails, I made the 1/4" dado groove for the recessed panel and the tenons. Then clamped the stiles to the work table at the proper width. The stiles are not cut to length yet. I measured the length for the rails plus the total 1/2" for the tenon depth. Several trials and small adjustments at the saw to get a decent fit. Cutting the panels to fit and the stiles to length tomorrow and ready for glue up.
