Here is one example, from a back cover "How They Did That" (or something like that. A few years ago. FWW internal search function is rather lame, so I could not find the original. Obviously there are many other joints. There were some nice examples at WIA sessions last year. You might search various blogs and find some pix. I believe a Roy Underhill session passed around some fun tricky examples. Attached are pix of some gift serving trays I made using the FWW tips.

I don’t know if this is the Fine Woodworking article that Tom is referring to, but for what it’s worth here are a couple of links. You need to be a subscriber to Fine Woodworking online to read the article in the first link or have the original Fine Woodworking issue #191. However the second link seems to be free access including the slide show.

First Article - “How They Did It” article on Yazawa’s Hawk’s Nail Joint (Fine Woodworking #191)

Second Article – A slide show (with narration) on Yazawa’s joinery and work.
