Graphical Construction Glossary >> Woodwork. >> Joints >> Bridle Joint
More or less superseded now this joint was in effect a "poor man's" mortise and tenon joint, used in similar positions, but where looks didn't matter too much. For example the carcases of cupboards pre cheap panel products. They were also used greatly in traditional heavy truss construction and in shoring and bracing positions. A large bridle joint is shown on the last page, in case you missed it. If you didn't find exactly what you are looking for try this search tool that will search the site and the web. "What can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience? "When we build, let us think that we build for ever."John Ruskin 1819-1900 |
