What is a Square-Cut Joint?
A square-cut joint is a type of woodworking joint where two pieces of wood are joined together by making a straight cut across the end grain of one piece and mating it with the corresponding straight cut on the other piece. It is called a square-cut joint because the cuts are made at right angles to the faces of the wood.
The square-cut joint is a simple and commonly used joint in woodworking. It is often used for joining boards together to create larger panels or surfaces, such as in cabinetmaking or furniture construction. It provides a strong and relatively easy-to-make connection between two pieces of wood. 
To create a square-cut joint, the ends of the two pieces of wood are cut squarely using a saw or other cutting tool. The cuts should be clean and straight to ensure a tight and flush joint. The two pieces are then brought together, aligning the cut ends, and secured using appropriate fasteners such as screws, nails, or dowels. Wood glue can also be used to reinforce the joint and provide additional strength.
