Subj: Re: Metal tendon caps

Just a point of clarification:

There have been dozens of messages in recent days with the above subject
line. Actually, what we are talking about here are "tenon" caps, not
"tendon" caps. Tenon and tendon are two completely different words, with
unrelated meanings. A "mortise and tenon" joint is one way to join two
pieces of wood or other material. That is where the name originates.
