Wood 101: Finger (Box) Joints
Finger joint or box combing (Photo credit: Wikipedia) |
Finger joints are used to join two pieces of wood together usually at a right angle, see illustration to the right. These joints are called finger joints as they look like interlocking fingers or box joints since they are commonly used when constructing boxes or drawers . Using this type of joint is both functional and decorative. The fingers fit together and are then glued to form a strong joint.
