Another approach...for those who love DP mode and end mills:



P.S. Not loose tenon though, but it is "okay" because I am off-topic on my own thread. ;)

Another approach using a palm router to mimic a Domino:

P.S. Be careful...some of these tools are scams that have been posted on FB (watch 2nd video below for more details about this).

RF Guy;

Thanks for that video on mortising with end mills. I have always used up spiral router bits for this operation but I think I may have to go to end mills...the results are really slick.

Ed,

Thanks. Yeah, no problem. Yeah, Mike is probably my favorite woodworker that posts on YT. I have definitely learned a few woodworking tips and tricks watching his videos, so I highly recommend his content. Also really like his delivery style. It was fortuitous that he posted that video at the same time this thread was active recently because it made me think to include it here. He also has some cool vintage woodworking tools, like that drill press, that he restored and posted videos of how he restored them on his channel.
