I got done watching a documentary on Japanese wood joining and someone in the comments said something about getting a copy of:

972 ways to join wood

I couldn't find a thing via search on Google,

Does anyone here have this book? Anything else like it?

I don't know if there are 972 different methods here, but this is an excellent reference... The original is out of print.

Wow. I just dropped my chisels on the floor, along with my jaw.
