Beautiful project. Can you tell me what this type of joint is called?
Thanks Daniel. Its a Japanese joint. Not sure the real name but I call it a Naga Joint. Some refer to it as a bridal joint because it has a half lap joint but that’s not the correct name either. Here’s a video of how to cut the joinery. ua-cam.com/video/U7ZNc5lQnro/v-deo.html
Excellent work! I'm looking to make one of these this weekend. How did you make the cuts in the 4 posts?
The joinery is easiest to cut using the bandsaw. But It can also be cut on the table saw using a dado set and a good tenon jig.
Beautiful design. Are the uprights 8/4 square?
Yes. 2”x2”
