I can't resist a little plug for my workshop here. 
 
I will be leading a workshop at the Super Sonic East Coast Regional  Festival 
in Asheville, NC on July 22 entitled "Stuff I Learned From  Bil." The focus 
will be the Baird style of manipulation. Participants will  discuss the Baird 
style of construction, control design, stringing, and have the  opportunity to 
work a Baird marionette.
 
See you there!

Thanks Roger for the additional infos!
Oh please, Can we see  close-up pics?
Has it any special attributes compared to the classic slot  and groove joint, 
or is it just so darn precise?

I am still working  on my slot and groove joint today. So far so good.
