<p>After watching a video of a recreation of this mysterious joint, hundreds of years old but only relatively recently understood after being x-rayed, I decided to make a replica. This model has been created in OpenSCAD with a fit tolerance of zero. Printing with PLA created a model with an initially tight fit that has loosened with repeated working.
