There is information on the basic tools needed to construct each joint and how to choose the right joint for every job.
Readers will also learn about factors that contribute to a strong wood joint, including how to read the wood grain, to ensure they achieve success every time. An indispensable joinery reference book, Wood Joints by Machine & by Hand provides the perfect introduction for novices and an ideal companion for more accomplished woodworkers looking to brush up on their skills.
