The art of carpentry includes a large number of wood assemblies so cleverly thought out and covered that they are almost imperceptible from the outside. By comparing oriental assembly techniques, particularly Japanese, with those used in Europe, this book presents the main assemblies used in the woodworking trades and offers many suggestions for the development of future constructions. Lengthwise, oblique, crosswise, corner or even plane assemblies… 67 shapes and nearly 300 variations are detailed, with explanatory texts and visuals to support them. The combinations presented are accompanied by diagrams and photographs to help you understand how these often complex constructions are made. This technical reference work perpetuates a craftsmanship that will interest all wood enthusiasts.

Summary: Introduction | Lengthwise joints | Oblique joints | Angle and cross joints | Plane joints
