A perfect fit is what counts.“差不多”还不够好，我们要的是精准的结合。When building furniture, there are many ways to construct joints. The simplest are those that use mechanical fasteners, like nails and screws. While these are sometimes appropriate, theyre not often used in first-class work, especially in visible areas. Whats preferred is a direct joint between parts, bonded with glue.做家具的时候，有很多连接构件的方法。最简单的就是使用机械连接件，比如顶子、螺丝。虽然这办法有时候适用，但在高级木作尤其是看面上却很少使用。人们更喜欢构件之间直接通过胶水来连接。Of course, the type of joint you need depends on a variety of factors, like the nature of the materials being joined, the function of the joint, strength and appearance requirements, what machinery and equipment are available, and your own level of skill. Whole books are devoted to this discipline–and most are far from comprehensive because the possibilities are almost endless. In light of this, joinery can certainly seem intimidating to the beginner. But it doesnt have to be. By mastering two primary joints, the edge joint and the mortise and tenon, you can build an astounding array of furniture.当然，选用哪种连接方式取决于多种因素，包括所要连接材料的性质、连接点的功能、强度和外观的要求、可用的工具装备以及你的技术水平。有很多书整本都在讲这些内容，但大多都讲得不全面，因为有几乎无数种可能的情况。鉴于此，连接方法的内容对于新手来说往往很吓人。但实际上大可不必，只要掌握两种主要的连接方法——边的连接和方榫连接——你就能做出很多种家具了。Edge Joints边的连接The first requirement of a good edge joint is that the two mating surfaces must fit together perfectly. This means there are no discernible gaps. Second, the mating surfaces must be either on the edge or the surface of a board. End grain is not a candidate for edge joining because of its open cellular structure. When glue is applied to these cells, they act like straws, pulling the glue deep into the wood instead of leaving it near the surface where the bond takes place. When end grain must be joined to edge or face grain, the joint of choice is the mortise and tenon. More on this later.做好边的连接的第一个要求就是对接的两条边必须能完美地拼合。这意
