   You print out the illustrations in these, and glue them to some poster board:

   Most of the generalized woodworking books I've looked at have such illustrations.  Even the DIY home fix-up books.

   Hello Jeff,

   I used to make samples of each joint and place them on a board with eye hooks. Student could then take them off of the board and study them close up and in-the-round. Of course, they were very good fitting and not glued. Sometimes I would make a sample, glue it, then using the table saw or band saw, make a cut-a-way

   I have a  nice 11x14 poster that was published by Titebond hanging on my wall.  I believe it was an insert in a WWing magazine within last few years but maybe they are available from them.

   I looked at the Titebond site but just info about glues...no literature. I can send a note to their customer service reps...does the poster have any title or identifying information I can use to describe it?
   thanks,
   Jeff

   I looked it over.  It says "special pull-out poster sponsored by Titebond" and is titled "Illustrated Guide to Joinery".  It was an "Advertising Supplement" in one of the woodworking magazines, and the back side (first page) has a Titebond has an article "Gluing: Facts and Fiction".

   It could have been from any of the major US magazines, most likely Wood, or Popular Woodworking, and it shows Titebond III as "new" so it can't be that old.  Sorry I can't pin it down more.  It is too big to scan on my scanner.

   Go to http://www.woodshopteachers.org.  Scroll down to resources and you'll find drawings or pictures of the more common joints.  Not a poster per se, but you might be able to make use of the images provided.  Best of luck.

   FWIW, I think actual physical samples are better teaching aids than drawings or photographs.

   Whether you use eye hooks or chain and padlocks depends on your students. ;-)

   This is a book, but it has all you need in the way of illustrations.

   Hi all,

   Thanks for the many responses.  If I can't track down the poster-insert that was mentioned earlier sponsored by Titebond, I will scan some images and create my own.  I have some of the joinery books mentioned so I will end up spending an evening at the scanner.

   You might want to consider the copyright implications of scanning images from books. Most kids already think they can copy anything for free. No need to reinforce that erroneous concept. ;-)

   Thanks for  your note.  The copyright laws do say that small numbers of copies can be made for educational purposes.  I couldn't scan the pictures and make a poster to sell but 'handout' materials for classroom instruction is ok.
