The technique for making a drawbore joint is just like making a pinned mortise and tenon joint. Start with a mortise and tenon joint. But rather than simply drilling holes and driving pegs through the joint to hold it together (which is very strong), you can create a joint that will draw itself up tighter as it's assembled.

To do this, first dry fit the pieces to be sure they fit properly. Then disassemble the joint. Now drill the peg holes through the mortise (both sides) just as you would if you were making a regular pinned mortise and tenon joint.

After drilling the holes, reassemble the pieces and mark the location of the holes on the tenon. Then disassemble the joint to drill the holes through the tenon, BUT position the holes slightly closer to the shoulder of the tenon. This way, when you drive the pegs into the holes they will draw the tenon very tightly into the mortise.

How much should you offset the holes? It doesn't have to be much. In hardwoods for fine furniture, 1/32" is enough. In softwoods like the pine workbench base, 1/16" is plenty. In a large timberframe structure, 1/4". Just don't over do it. A slight offset will draw the joint up nicely.
