Wikipedia

  1. Scarf joint

    A scarf joint (also known as a scarph joint) is a method of joining two members end to end in woodworking or metalworking. The scarf joint is used when the material being joined is not available in the length required. It is an alternative to other joints such as the butt joint and the splice joint and is often favored over these in joinery because it yields a barely visible glue line.

  1. scarf joint

    A scarf joint is a method of joining two pieces of material, usually wood or timber, in which the ends are overlapped and shaped or cut in a certain way to fit together seamlessly. This type of joint is typically used where the pieces to be joined are too large or long to be made or transported in one piece. The joint is designed to provide strength, stability, and a smooth surface without any visible seams. The overlapping ends are usually tapered or cut at an angle to maximize the surface area of the joint for better adhesion. It is often used in woodworking, carpentry, shipbuilding, and construction.
