<p>A forcing tool (4) is provided in which a lobe (aperture 5) incorporates opposed lobe pairs (9, 10) having driving flanks (21). Distal ends (12) of the driving flanks (11) define a spacing (13) consistent with the width of a dowel or tang (2) to be utilised in a twisted-dowel joint. The aperture (5) incorporates location recesses (14) to allow the dowel or tang (2) to pass through the aperture (5) and then through twisting create a lock condition.</p> |
