2015 08 August Demo – Bow Tie Inlay by Richard Winchester

HCWG Posted on Aug 4th 2015 by HCWG WebmasterAug 4th 2015  

Butterfly Keys.

Butterfly keys are both artistic and structural and are used to reinforce checks in boards for table tops and other furniture.

Do not make the ends too wide. The thickness can be 3/8′ or more commonly about 5/8″ to 3/4″, depending on the cracked board. Sometimes a 2nd BF is needed underneath the top BF to reinforce the crack.
