I have all the parts for the side posts of the gates cut out. I just need to plane them to make them all the same thickness and assemble. I was thinking about assembling the pieces with a couple of dowels in each joint. Then I thought about biscuits but I think that the dowels will add some strength.
I also thought about whipping out a jig and doing mortise and loose tenons but I don't think there is much advantage over a couple of dowels. Just thought I would ask. Someone might have a better idear.
