Synopsis

Wood Joints by Machine & Hand is an indispensable reference book and instructional guide to creating the most common joints in woodworking.

 

Joinery is a fundamental element of woodworking, and mastering the basic joints is essential to becoming a skilled woodworker. However, not all wood joints are created equal, so knowing how and when to use them is just as important. This book provides an overview of how to make the most common joinery used in woodworking.

 

Wood joints include:

  • Butt Joint
  • Miter Joint
  • Dowel Joint
  • Mortise and Tenon Joint
  • Box Joint
  • Dovetail Joint

 

Each joint is accompanied by detailed step-by-step instructions and illustrated with full-colour photographs. Methods are shown for building joints using both hand and power tools, and alternative techniques are given where appropriate, allowing the reader to experiment and decide on their preferred process. Information is on the essential tools needed to construct each joint and how to choose the right joint for every job.

 

Readers will also learn about factors, such as grain, that contribute to a strong wood joint to ensure they achieve success every time.
