tenon
A tenon is a woodworking joint that connects two pieces of material, typically wood. It is created by cutting a projection, or "tenon," on the end of one piece, which fits into a corresponding hole, or "mortise," in another piece. This joint is commonly used in furniture making and construction to provide strength and stability.
Tenons can vary in shape and size, depending on the design and purpose of the joint. They are often used in conjunction with mortise and tenon joints, a traditional technique that has been employed for centuries in various types of woodworking, including cabinetmaking and timber framing.
