A joints book every Shopbotters should have !

[pierrearchi]

Hi all,

Just would like to share this free German PDF book where you could find a lot of wood panels joints ready to be cut (dxf inside !!). Maybe you use to share it during US jamboree only ... As a french guy, i understand why "German people" are far away from us concerning CNC questions (and why their economy is so good at the moment compare to us): the book was written in 1999 !! :eek:

Special hello to Bill (Young) and Robert Bridges i met in NY first Makefaire ...

Bye,

Pierre.

Pierre, were you waiting for Shopbots to come in different colours perhaps? You do tend to almost die of excitement once you take the plunge and actually order! Yes the joints are rather amazing and I had no idea they were designed such a long time ago. Have made the mitres and they look fantastic in contrasting timbers. Makes your work look more complicated than what it really is.
