Experiment 3
For my third and final experiment I worked with joining the wood. I did three different kind of joints. One being the T joint. This joint is very strong because the piece on top is supported by the long piece underneath. The second joint I did was small version of a miter joint. This joint was the strongest it involves slanted pieces put together. I felt like this joint is very strong and works well. My third and final joint which was the weakest was the pocket hole joint. I found it hard to make but the version that I made was not to strong. It involves slanted pieces as well but it looks like a hinge when complete. If done successfully it will probably be very strong but my version was not.
