Basic Woodworking Joints

Nowadays, it is possible to build almost any piece of furniture without being able to tell a dovetail from a bridle joint or ever touching a chisel. But if you want to work wood or if your interest is in repairing, restoring or reproducing traditional furniture, you will need to know the purposes of cut joints and the way to make them.

Cutting traditional joints is work for hand tools; the right ones, correctly used without rushing.
The tools you need

The tools required are few and mostly unsophisticated. Jigs, which can save time setting out when the same joint must be repeated several times, are available. But they are limited in the size of work-piece that can be accommodated and require much the same level of concentration in use as tools used freehand. You can also make your own jigs.

A basic setting and marking out kit consists of a try-square (for angles other than 90° use a sliding bevel), a pencil and a marking knife, a straight-edged rule (preferably stainless steel) and marking and mortise gauges.

The four basic tools for making joints are a saw, a chisel, a mallet and a plane. You do not need to use all four for every joint. For some joints you need only use a saw - usually a tenon saw, but fine cabinet work may call for a dovetail saw, which is similar but smaller. Even finer work - on small drawers and boxes or on models, say - may need a gents saw, which has a straight handle and very small teeth. A coping saw is useful for cutting out the waste between dovetails and pins.

Many joints require chisels - the most satisfactory type for general use is the bevel-edge chisel, in widths from 6.5mm upwards. A block or smoothing plane is needed to level the surfaces of the joint after it has been assembled. Rebate, moulding and plough planes could also be used to make the work easier. A router makes a better job of smoothing and levelling the bottom of housings than a chisel.

Joints
The naming of joints is not always consistent: some are called one thing by one craftsman and something else by another. Where alternative names are common, we have given both.

A joint is a fixed junction between two or more pieces of wood: it should not be flexible. The simplest is the butt joint, in which two surfaces are brought together in the same plane and joined with glue or mechanical devices, such as pins or screws, or a combination of both. A dowelled joint is basically a butt joint secured with glued-in wooden pins - dowels.

What do you think? Answer below!

Basic Woodworking Joints - Rebate and Housing Joints

A rebate joint, at its simplest, is a slightly stronger version of a butt joint it pro¬vides contact between the mating com¬ponents in two planes instead of one. A rebate is formed by removing a square or rectangular section across the end or along the edge of a piece of wood using hand or power tools.

Rebate joint
In the simplest type of rebate joint, the rebate is normally cut to half the wood thickness, leaving a projecting tongue equal to the thickness of the other, square-cut component. This type of rebate is often used on the lops of book¬cases and shelf unils where the top rests on and between the top ends of the sides. It may also be used for joining drawer fronts to and between the sides. At least half the end grain is hidden.

The joints are usually reinforced with pins, driven through the overlap in pairs at opposing angles - this is called dovetail nailing.

The rebate is usually cut with a rebate plane. This has a width guide and a depth stop and cleans the vertical edge of the cut as it is used. Short rebates in a board end, for example can be cut with a saw but care is needed.

Bare-faced halving
This is another type of rebate joint often used for fixing shelves in bookcases. The shelves have rebated ends with the projecting tongue lilting into the horizontal slots in the inner faces of the bookcase sides. The joint is made shoulder-up for strength. This joint may be used in drawers; a rebated back may be housed between the sides, or a front

Housing joints
Not all housing joints are rebated, but whether they are or not. they fall in two categories: the through housing, in which the construction is visible at both back and front edges of the joint; and the stop¬ped housing which from the front edge appears to be a simple butt joint.

Through housing
This is a simple joint to set out and cut. The shoulder lines of the housing (the thickness of the board to be housed apart) should be marked across the inner face of the board and squared over the edges. The depth of the housing - between one-third and half the thick¬ness - should be marked with a gauge. Then shoulders should be sawn and the waste removed with a chisel again work from each edge towards the centre. Finish the bottom of the housing with a router or a paring chisel.

Stopped housing
In this joint the cut should be taken only part way across the board, stopping about 20mm from the front edge. The end of the board to fit into it should be cut at the front corner to accommodate the 'stop'.

Mark shoulder lines across the inner face as far as the stop and on the back edge. Gauge the depth on the back edge too. To allow room to work the saw, the first 50mm of the housing back from the stop should be cut out with the chisel -used with its bevel down. Then saw shoulders, and chisel out the remaining waste and finish the bottom of the hous¬ing with a router if you have one.

It seems everybody in the world knows a thing or two about basic carpentry. Or at least, the men do. For sure, these skills are rough, unrefined, and are limited to minor home repairs, replacements, nailing down noisy panels, and covering a hole or two. And the tools are rudimentary as well, from a hammer, to a plane, a chisel, a couple of nails, and down to a handsaw. Moreover, selection of materials is not given much thought and consideration. Further, safety is thrown out of the window like excess wood cuts. But there are carpentry schools that provide classes on the basics and the proper approach to the craft. Like other activities, there is a right way to carpentry.

Basic carpentry skills are needed to properly carry out home repairs, minor additions, renovations, and other projects. Trade schools that teach the basics of carpentering normally discuss about introductory courses such as the manual and power tools and how to use them, read and interpret drawings and symbols, how to mark and measure, executing small projects, basic principles, and practical carpentry skills. Tutorial videos and e-books are also available to the weekend carpenter. Joinery works are some of the basic skills. From the very simple glued joint, to the half joints, the angular mitred joints, the dovetail, mortise and tenon, and others. A mark of a good carpenter knows which joint to use on a particular project.

Carpentry is a complex undertaking that only professional carpenters can perform. Simple carpentry works that are mostly confined to drilling, nailing, and fixing need only the basic tools. One would only depend on simple manual hand and power tools. These tools are steel framing squares, tape measures, handy power nailers, some chisels, chalk line, an electric drill, retractable utility knife, extension cords for power tools, a ladder, power cutters, circular saw, hardware, accessories, and others. Safety goggles, hand gloves, and steel-capped boots cover the safety end. All these items for light construction can fit in carpenter kits and light trucks one can bring along in going to job sites.

Simple carpentry may be called light carpentry in that the size of the work can be managed by one or three people at most. And nearly all of these are related to carpentry jobs in homes, establishments, and interior works. They cover the work of constructing dry walls, fitting of door linings, cutting and fixing of architraves and skirting, dado rails, moldings, windows, kennels, play houses, and others. The proper handling of wood is basic at the same time very important to avoid wastage. Choosing the right kind of wood is also one of the basics. There are many types of wood, from soft to hardwood, that are chosen for work-specific purposes.

A basic carpentry course is a good start on the way to being a master carpenter. Probably the most practical and integral part of it is to accurately read and interpret architectural plans and schematic drawings and make functional multi-view sketches for actual execution. If one canâ??t correctly tell what and how the job entails and where, no matter his adeptness at his tools, then the individual is as good as a warehouseman. One very important facet is the understanding of electrical layouts and symbols to avoid electrical hazards and accidents. Proper analysis of drawing scales and transferring them to the job site is as important as knowing what the types of lines and their weights mean. There are numerous types of lines used in drawings that signify that something else is either above, below, or hidden.

Every building, irrespective of its size, needs carpentry works for various applications like doors, windows and furniture. Carpentry is different from other construction works. It involves proper handling of wood materials and fixing it in the right way. Carpentry works should be done with a skilled craftsmanship. Poor implementation of carpentry works can give an awful look to a house and the furniture in it. Though most of the carpentry works can be done only with the help of skilled professionals, some of the basic works like nailing, drilling and fixing can be done by everyone. Basic Tools In the past, carpentry works were done only with the help of various hard tools like hammer, chisel, saw and other accessories. In the recent times, modern technology allows carpenters to replace hammers with drills. However, hammers are also widely used for various other purposes. Steel square is a tool used by carpenters for various applications like measuring, checking the flatness of the surface and making patterns on a wooden surface. Other accessories like nails, screws, drill bits, glue, screw drivers and safety glasses are also included in a carpenter kit. Carpentry in Houses It is a common thing to see people taking some basic training in carpentry classes. Some of the simple works at home can be done with help of basic carpentry training. There are also various books available in the market to gather knowledge in the art of carpentry. Proper handling of wood is the basic requirement for carpentry skills. Experienced carpenters can do a fine work with a minimum wastage of wood. Choosing the right quality of wood is also an important skill of an experienced carpenter. There are different types of wood to choose from and wood from popular trees like oak, teak, pine and aspen are widely used for various purposes. Carpentry in houses involves various works like fixing windows, doors, gates, playhouses, kennels, and racks. Other works like building a staircase, drawers, trolleys and interior shutters can also be done at home. Some of these works need a minimal experience in handling wooden materials. Skilful execution of the carpentry works can be helpful in producing various fine objects. Full-fledged carpentry works can be done with the help of professionals specialized in this field. Professional carpenters may be specialized in building large structures or smaller objects. Carpenters with different skill levels can provide a fine service on different works.

Carpentry can always come in handy, it is a skill that can be expanded upon once a person has learned the basic. Teen boys who want to learn carpentry should know there are some basic tools and ideas to start with. Safety always has to come first, wearing the correct protective clothing, such as goggles, gloves, boots, or some other closed toed shoes, and even occasionally long sleeves is a must. Also, removing jewelry, rings, earrings, necklaces, and anything else that could caught in a machine or attached to something can never be forgotten.

Doing these things will lessen the chance that a teen boy who wants to learn carpentry will not get hurt, injured, or injure someone else. Also, always remembering to turn machines, put the safety switches on, never leaving cords tangled or laying around where someone could trip or another machine could be damaged or cause damage to property and work placed near it.

The number of accidents that can be avoided by remembering is to always work safely and neatly. Cleaning up the work area after every project, putting tools and materials away so there is less chance of tripping or loosing tools. These things will help and create a safer environment for any teen who wants to learn carpentry. Then there are all the tools that a teen would be using. Such as some basic ones like a hammer, hand saw, nails, screws, drill, wrench, pliers, along with possibly sand paper, a grinder, and different sizes of screwdrivers. Then there are some tools that are little more advanced but are still needed for basic carpentry like planners, table saw, air compressors, lathe, power drills, and additional power tools that can even be run by the air compressor.

These tools would be needed to make basic projects like tables, chairs, book cases, and even shelves. Any teen boy who wants to learn basic carpentry would need to learn and understand how to use all these different tools if they want their projects to come out neat and sturdy.
