to permit the insertion of the posts 16 the posts 16 are slid in place and the respective slats 14 pressed into place in the notches 32 of the posts finally nothing remains but to slide all seventeen of the key posts into place when the joint is completed there is a void 34 which is defined by the bottom parts of the openings 28 and 24 beneath the solid key post 18 and between the sides of the slats 14 adjacent the half notches to eliminate this void the slats could be cut as shown in fig1 with the otherwise full notch 22 instead being defined by an e cut 36 which leaves a tongue of wood 38 two of which fill the void 34 this results in a somewhat stronger joint in addition to the e cut 36 in the slat there are other configurations which would result in the internal void being filled which will not be expanded upon there in either of the joint embodiments illustrated the wine rack of the instant disclosure as indicated above is very complex in its conception at least for a wine rack but is at the same time conceptually extremely simple in its implementation when made from.
