 Re: String instead of cork
Author: BobD

Ron and Gordon pretty much explain the why of it. In my experience using string requires one to get the diameter "just right" moreso than with cork because the string really doesn't compress much. Also, if you get too much string on the tenon you may have a hard time disassembling which could lead to a cracked tenon. You can use two different diameters of string to get it right. I rub the string with paraffin but I guess you could also use waxed string or rub it with beeswax yourself. String is not something to use if you don't like to spend time fooling around with your tenons.
