Re: 3-way Miter Joint, Chinese Style

Great work on the digital model!

mrossk:
American Woodworker just published my article in their Dec/Jan 2011 issue (#151) on making three-way miters. It is a simplified version (the two apron pieces are identical, otherwise I never would have fit the article into 8 pages), but it should give you a good sense of a workable order to follow and adapt for these joint pieces. You can see a preview (only the first page, unfortunately) here: http://americanwoodworker.com/blogs/resources/archive/2010/11/09/preview-2-ways-to-cut-a-3-way-miter.aspx

Otherwise you might still find it in stores, even though the next issue is out.

Good luck!

Re: Williamsburg, Day 2: Mind-Blowing 3-Way Miter Joint

Not to bring attention to an FW competitor, but American Woodworker just published my article on three-way miters in their December/January 2011 issue #151. It is admittedly a slightly dumbed-down version, but it is a good place to start exploring this kind of joinery. I give detailed instructions for making the joint either with all hand tools or incorporating power tools.

Maybe some stores haven't switched out to the next issue yet!
