Some woodworking experience recommended.
A box joint is made by cutting a set of complementary, interlocking profiles in two pieces of wood, which are then joined (usually) at right angles, usually glued. The glued box joint has a high glued surface area resulting in a strong bond. Box joints are used for corners of boxes or box-like constructions, hence the name.
In this workshop, participants will learn to layout and create box joints using the table saw and jigs to ensure accurate, repetitive cuts.
