jointing
Fitting pieces together
Jointing is the process of creating or preparing joints.
In woodworking, jointing means flattening and straightening a board's edge so it can be glued to another: I spent the morning jointing boards for the tabletop.
In masonry, jointing is finishing or repairing the mortar between bricks or stones.
In butchery, jointing means cutting meat into portions at the joints.
