<p>The present invention relates to a method and device (20) for making a timber joint, preferably an interlocking corner. Such a timber joint comprises hewn or planed logs (1) joined together by an edge joint. Indentations (7, 8) and notches (11) are arranged on the top, bottom and side surfaces (2, 3, 9, 10) of the logs joined together to enable the logs to be arranged crosswise, at the same time providing a longitudinal contact surface between the superimposed logs. In the method of the invention, the notches (11) on the side surfaces (9, 10) of the log are made by pressing the opposing side surfaces of the log with a device (20) essentially perpendicular to the side surfaces. By adjusting the pressing force (F), it is possible to affect the depth of the notches.</p> |
