There were many ways to connect bamboo chips, and one of the most common methods was to connect them with a bayonet. The bayonet was a metal joint that could be used to secure the connection. However, there were some problems with the use of nails when making bamboo products, such as high cost, metal scraps that polluted the environment, and the lack of coordination with bamboo chips. In order to solve these problems, someone proposed an eco-friendly, low-cost bamboo nail suitable for connecting and fixing bamboo chips. The bamboo nail consists of a bamboo nail, a bamboo nail body and a bamboo nail tip in turn along the length direction. The shape of the bamboo nail cap can be a hemisphere, a round table or a polyhedron, and the thickness is generally 2-5 mm. This method of bamboo nail connection could play an auxiliary role in fixing, and the bamboo needed to be punched in advance before use. In summary, the bamboo strips could be connected by this kind of eco-friendly bamboo nail.

The fixing nails of bamboo chips were also called bamboo nails. They could be divided into two types according to their different uses: pressing nails and bolt nails. The pressing sheet nail was used to cooperate with the pressing sheet to fix the bamboo surface, while the bolt supporting nail was used to support the bolt position, such as the bottom of each wall on the support, to bear the seat force of the wall and fix the position of the wall. In addition, the bolt also secured the relevant tenon and mortise parts. The bamboo nails were generally cut into the shape of a round rod with a big top and a small bottom. Ming Dynasty furniture was often drilled with small bamboo nails from the mortise and tenon to strengthen it. The shape of the bamboo nail was required to be big at the top and small at the bottom. The cut surface was straight, the cross section of the bamboo green was slightly narrower than the bamboo yellow, and the wall thickness was equal to the width of the bamboo green surface. The specific specifications varied according to the use.
