The 4th tape in the Woodguy series is all about wood joints. Where to use them and what makes them strong. The Woodguy covers the nomenclature and description of 40 different wood joints, with examples of each. This section also includes very interesting explanations of the history of joints and where they are most often seen. The exotic wood is Australian Lace Wood or Silky Oak as it is known in Australia. In answering letters from viewers who want to see the Woodguy shop, for this tape, he stays at home and gives you a tour of his own facilities. And shows you a commision that he is working on, turning an antique armoire into a bar.
In the save-your-money segment he discusses the merits of the radial arm saw. In the tricks of the trade section he demonstrates how to make a tight-fitting lap joint on the table saw without measuring, and an easy trick for making a box joint jig for your table saw that makes cutting box joints a breeze. This tape is a must for anyone who is serious about woodworking.
