Scissor-Joint Sewing Box
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: Kintaro Yazawa
This sewing box features one-of-a-kind scissor joints. They are basically dovetail joints with the ends of the pins altered. If you took the joint apart, you would see that the spaces between the tails are cut just as on half-blind dovetails. In this case, however, the thin layer of wood at the outside face of the board is through-carved to accept the ornamental ends of the pins.
