Dutch Wood Joint

Description

Dutch Wood Joint is a novel wood joint, developed in the Netherlands. Unlike many Japanese wood joints that are using straight cuts, this Dutch Wood Joint uses cuts that are tapered linear spirals. The parts screw together in a helical fashion and provide a tight fit. However, novel does not mean useful. Would you know any practical application for this joint?
