Hi Dave,

How could I leave out the real name from the last post?  I was tired but
sheesh!

It is called a tenon, as in a mortise and tenon.

Some of these were blocks just glued on top of the key, some are let
into the body of the key.  Those let into the key had to have a groove
cut into the key bank, hence "tenon".
