Digi Fab_Japanese Joint Final Product

Here is the final product of the japanese joint for my digital fabrication class. The video is just a short portion of cutting the joint on the router.

Digi Fab_Japanese Joint

For my last project we have to create a japanese joint composed of 4 parts with 2 joints in the part(3 segments). The hard part of the assignment is that each segment within the part is cut at angles (0,5,10,15) varied throughout plan and section. It gets harder, we had to create a jig in order to transform the 3 axis router into a 5 axis router. This is just the first attempt to cut the joint, I'll post the finished product after its done. Oh, the joint didn't work because we forgot to add in a tolerance for the joint. Ha
