45 Degree Lock Miter Joint - 12

This unique lock mitre joint 45 degree - 12 was designed for stacking many square parts simultaneously. The interlocking design is milled in two identical pieces marked "random" and two marked "locked in". In the image above the part marked random is milled from the left and right vertical cutter heads and any size width within the parameters of the molder is possible. The part marked locked in is milled from the top cutter head, it is locked in to the width size needed for the woodworking project.

When assembling the parts the need for clamping is only required on two sides of the box because the hook style joint can't move once it is put under clamp pressure from the top and bottom, this makes it a great joint for stacking multiple newel boxes or table legs. Custom-made elegance is a phrase used to define the beauty, style and artisanship of thousands of our moulding designs.
