in a building no longer exists....back in 1968..Freshman year...Industrial Arts Class. We were given a "Grade Sheet" of 8 types of wood joints. Each joint was shown as a drawing...with 2 _ _ areas beside it...when each joint was completed, you put in the date, and the Teacher recorded the grade...you had to pass each step...BEFORE you could use anything besides these tools.. To include the bench vise. You went to the tool crib, and signed out the day's tools you needed....at the end of the class, they were returned to the crib. You also spent one class period IN the tools crib...keeping track of all the tools. Joints? Simple Butt Joint Mitered corner joint half lap joint Bridle Joint Rebate joint Mortise and Tenon joints Dovetail joints ( one dovetail as a half lap joint) Dado joint Each day, you'd sign out the tools, put on you blue denin work apron....lay the sheet on the bench and get to work....IF it was shop time...other days, you would be taking a drafting class.. This evening...I went out to Lowes, spent just under $20 on 3 boards..(2) 3/4" x 2-1/2" x 4', and (1) at 3/4" x 2-1/2" x 6' Plan is to re-create that wood working test...boards will be hand sawn to 6" length...to include laying out that cut, and sawing it. The Butt joint? may or may not do that...the Miter joint..will get turned into a mitered half lap ( to keep you on your toes) IF this sounds like something you'd like to see, AND DO....Class will start next week... Let me know..
