The majority of my antique knowledge comes from reading and photos, with a little bit of "in-person" viewing.
What are some "period" methods of producing pegs to secure M/T joints. What are "period(s)" shapes.
The pegs I've seen appear square-ish and irregular. I assume these were split out (rived), but were these then tapered with a chisel prior to use?
What interests me especially are the pegs used to attach moldings to furniture.
Thanks
