Fixing a broken mortise and tenon joint

While disassembling this chair leg and cross piece the tenon broke off in the mortise. Ugh. So I made a quick centering jig for my drill to drill a 1/2" hole centered in the end of the cross piece and cut a length of 1/2" dowel to use as a floating tenon between the two pieces.
