About This Book

A practical manual explains the principles and practice of forming and using a wide range of woodworking joints, combining clear setting-out instructions, tool lists, and step-by-step methods for making each joint. It systematically treats glued, halved, bridle, tongue-and-groove, mortise-and-tenon, dowelled, scarf, hinged, shutting, dovetail (including dovetail grooving), mitred, curved, miscellaneous and puzzle joints, and includes guidance on when to use each. Extensive technical illustrations and workshop exercises demonstrate layout, cutting, assembly, and finishing techniques, with notes on laminating, housing, and reinforcement methods such as glue, screws, and nails. Designed for beginners and instructors as well as experienced craftsmen, the text emphasizes accurate marking and fitting while offering practical variants for furniture, frames, drawers, and curved work.
