What happens here

With the glue freshly applied, carefully bring the two wood pieces together. The precision-cut male and female profiles of the lock miter joint will interlock, guiding the pieces into perfect alignment. Gently press the pieces together, ensuring they are fully seated. Visually inspect the joint to confirm it is flush and square before applying clamps, as slight adjustments are easier to make at this stage. This step is demonstrated as the side panels of a box structure are joined.

Goal: Carefully bring the glue-coated wood pieces together, aligning the interlocking lock miter profiles. The joint's design naturally aids in aligning the pieces accurately, creating a flush and square assembly.
