ristisiltojen
Ristisiltojen is a Finnish term that translates to "cross bridges" or "interlocking bridges". It most commonly refers to a type of structural joint used in woodworking and construction. This joint is characterized by two pieces of material being cut with notches that interlock to form a strong and stable connection. The notches are typically made in a way that allows the two pieces to sit flush with each other. This method is often employed when constructing frames, boxes, or other assemblies where right-angle connections are needed. The precise shape and depth of the notches can vary depending on the specific application and the materials being used. Ristisiltojen can be found in various applications from furniture making to more robust construction projects where a simple but effective joinery technique is desired. Its strength comes from the increased surface area of contact between the interlocking pieces.
