PTWFE Chapter 23 Biscuit Joining

Post by jimthej »

I'm a couple of days late starting this. Sorry it's been really hectic here for the last week, and no end in sight.
This week's read is Chapter 23(I hope) and the subject is Biscuit Joining. I have one, and have had mixed success with the 3 projects I have tried.
The link is: http://www.shopsmith.com/academy/biscuitjoining/index.htm
I may be able to answer questions, but probably will be doing it with another question. I'm really looking forward to this.

Biscuit Joining

Post by jimthej »

I thought there are some good ideas on biscuit joining in the Hands On Videos, but I couldn't find them. One was on using the SS biscuit joiner in the face of boards away from the ends.
Was just on the Lamello site and they have a bunch of videos showing their products. Gave me some great ideas for using biscuits that I had never thought of. http://www.lamello.com/en/downloads/application-videos.html
Enjoy.
