Connection Possibilities

In woodworking, there is a massive variety of possible ways to make pieces fit together nicely.

My top three
  • The Mortise and Tenon
           
Pros:                                                          Cons:
Easy to make                                              None so far
Very durable
Great for 90 degree joints
  • The Dovetail

              
Pros:                                                         Cons:
Extremely strong                                        Hard to construct
                                                                 If made with any errors, completely useless
  • Butt Joint
                  
Pros:                                                        Cons:
Easy to make                                            Weak compared to the other two joints
Great for small loads
