Pocket-hole joinery, or pocket-screw joinery, involves drilling a hole at an angle — usually 15 degrees — into one work piece, and then joining it to a second work piece with a self-tapping screw.
Joints of two pieces of wood . A mortise determines the shape of the ends of the two pieces of wood to be joined. Some of traditional joints are listed below: dovetail joint; pocket-hole joinery; Biscuit joint [6] dowel (carpentry) [7] [8] tongue and groove; Butt joint; p.e. traditional violins [9] [10] Beveled joint; p.e. two pieces of plywood ...
Comb binding (sometimes referred to as "cerlox" or "surelox" binding) is one of many ways to bind pages together into a book. This method uses round plastic spines with 19 rings (for US Letter size) or 21 rings (for A4 size) and a hole puncher that makes rectangular holes.
The pocket holes require two drilling operations to be completed. The first is to counterbore the pocket hole itself, which houses the screw head within the member. This hole is stopped 1 ⁄ 4 in (6.4 mm) or so from the edge of the frame member. The second step is to drill a pilot hole concentric with the pocket hole which extends through the ...
Joinery is a part of woodworking that involves joining pieces of wood, engineered lumber, or synthetic substitutes (such as laminate), to produce more complex items. Some woodworking joints employ mechanical fasteners, bindings, or adhesives, while others use only wood elements (such as dowels or plain mortise and tenon fittings).
A splice joint is a method of joining two members end to end in woodworking. [1] The splice joint is used when the material being joined is not available in the length required. It is an alternative to other joints such as the butt joint and the scarf joint. Splice joints are stronger than unreinenforced butt joints and have the potential to be ...
The joint is formed by cutting opposing tapered ends on each member which are then fitted together. When working with wood, this gives better long grain to long grain gluing surface, which yields a stronger joint than would be achieved with a simple butt joint. The tapers are generally cut at an angle between 1:8 to 1:10.
A cavity or hole, generally rectangular, in a piece of wood, meant to receive a tenon or a hinge. mitre. Also spelled miter. Any joint made by fastening together pieces with the ends cut at an angle. mitre box. Also spelled miter box. A box used for making mitre joints by having slots to guide a saw at the desired angle for the joint. mitre saw
