I think th...Thank you Giuliano for your kind words.<br />I think that you are right, and that with today's glues, biscuits are not really necessary. I like them because they have two advantages for me - they swell up and expand inside the slot when they absorb the glue - and provide a stronger joint. Secondly, they provide a register for the flat surfaces of both boards, to minimise sideways slip when clamping. This is something that has happened to me in the past and I have found a little "step" in the joint after the glue has dried, that has had to be planed out.<br />Happy woodworking ......<br />TomThe Village Woodworkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08357757946377220970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7009842661178078975.post-64667699721956954352012-03-13T15:45:36.742-07:002012-03-13T15:45:36.742-07:00Thank you for sharing this project.

I never used biscuits for panel construction, simply I glue up boards together; do you find they are necessary for the requested strength, relating them to board thickness too?<br />I like much your blog.<br /><br />Ciao GiulianoGiulianohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05479203067787408903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7009842661178078975.post-67415342328996498052012-02-28T14:04:22.915-08:002012-02-28T14:04:22.915-08:00Tom,

I think i may have to invest in some of those one day myself.<br /><br />Working life is going great, I have two major projects on the go both centre stage peices for St. Paul's and St. Josephs. I would like to chew your ear off for ideas one day soon.... keep blogging, i am keen to see the end of this jelly cabinet and how it turns outminushuman21https://www.blogger.com/profile/14000534067909017090noreply@blogger.com
