Dovetail join detail
This Dovetail table is based on a traditional design from the Takayama area of Japan and is traditionally used in Japanese temple gate construction. The joint allows for movement in the timber as it can be tightened easily by tapping the dovetail further across, which is perfect for the extremes in the Canberra climate.
