Many of the various Woodworking Joints used today have developed over time but modern materials and tools have resulted in some additions. In general, Woodworking Joints may be classified as:

Burr Puzzles
  • Lengthening Joints
  • Widening Joints
  • Framing Joints
  • Carcass (or Box) Joints.

There is a very comprehensive description of all wood joints in EBook of Woodwork Joints, by William Fairham available free from Project Gutenburg. The book is an old one and perhaps of greatest interest to Antique Restorers - but traditional woodwork joints have not changed very much in hundreds of years!


Woodworking Joints from Western traditions can be supplemented also by woodworking methods from other cultures (e.g. Chinese and Japanese tools and techniques)
