TENONS
(pinned through tenon shown)
A signature
element of Stickley construction is the tenon – a
board whose ends have been cut for insertion into a
mortise. A blind tenon is concealed within the
mortise. A through tenon projects beyond the depth of
the mortise.
Tenons,
whether blind, through, pinned or keyed, are the very
best way to join furniture together.
