this is a very neat joint.  Roy Underhill has been doing this for a very long time.  He made a mallet that uses 2 of these joints. Very cool

Roy Underhill has been a major inspiration to my wood work. His show and the New Yankee work shop came on back to back in the 80's on PBS and you could bet that I would be right there in front of the TV every sat to watch them

I was a big fan of The New Yankee Workshop...Believe it or not, I wasn't introduced to Roy Underhills, projects, videos, etc until last year. And have become a Fan for sure.
