A joint in which a series of fingers, or tenons, are cut into the ends of the two pieces of material to be joined. The fingers mesh together.
A machining process where two or more independent pieces of wood are joined together creating a straighter and more ridged component.
Process by which shorter boards are reassembled into longer boards (typically 16' -20 lengths) by permanently bonded, precision fitted joints. Flat Grain Cedar
Small pieces of wood are recycled and jointed together to create long lengths of wood for millwork at a inexpensive price.
Long tapered fingers used to join material lenghtwise, often used in manufacturing moulding to join short lengths.
When the ends of two pieces of lumber are cut to an identically matching set. Used most commonly to increase the length of the board.
It refers to a joint for attaching wood with the help of glue cut in elongated zigzag pattern.
A joint where the lines of the joint resemble interlocked fingers; commonly used in paint grade trim.
A joint consisting of a series of fingers, precision machined on the ends of two separate pieces of timber, which mesh together perfectly and are firmly held together by an adhesive.
A manufacturing process of interlocking two shorter pieces of wood end to end to create a longer piece of dimensional lumber or molding. Often used in jambs and casings and are normally painted (instead of stained).
also called "box combing", this is a technique to join two specifically cut pieces. Each piece has f'ingers' matching the other one to perfectly fit into each other.
Glued timber joint used in load-bearing structures
Series of interlocking fingers cut on the ends of two pieces of wood which mesh together and are held by adhesive.
Also known as a knuckle joint, this is a wooden hinge (with a metal pintle) used in the supporting mechanism such as the fly-bracket of a drop-leaf or folding table or the swing leg of a gateleg or card table.
An end joint in which wedge shaped projections in one piece of timber fit matching recesses on the other piece and are bonded together by an adhesive.
A joint in which two pieces of wood are cut in an elongated zigzag pattern and joined together with glue.
A joint made with interlocking finger-like projections in two boards.
A way of joining short sections of board stock together, end to end to make longer stock. Door and frame parts are often made using finger-jointed pine stock.
A connection created when two pieces of wood are cut in an elongated zigzag pattern and then joined with glue.
A series of fingers machined on the ends of two pieces of wood to be joined, which mesh together and are held firmly in position with an adhesive.
Narrow extensions of wood, resembling fingers, are cut in the ends of pieces of two pieces of wood so that they interlock and form a joint. When the extensions are glued together, they form a level surface.
A joint between two pieces created by machining a series of interlocking groves; used to create a longer section of wood. The joints are firmly held in place with an adhesive.
A finger joint or box combing or box joint is a woodworking technique used to join two pieces of wood at right angles to each other. It is much like a dovetail joint except that the pins are square and not angled and usually equally spaced. The joint relies on glue for holding together as it does not have the mechanical strength of a dovetail.
