Biscuit Joiner

Using it well

• Biscuits swell on contact with glue, so cut the slot and glue up reasonably quickly.
• Use size 0 for small mitres, size 20 for edge joints in thick stock.
• Register the fence on the same face of both parts or the joint will step.

Reference sample in 3D

The model above is a real European oak reference block rendered in the browser. It is simulated from a height field rather than photographed, so you can rotate it to see how light behaves across the grain, the end grain and the edges. Drag it, or use the view buttons to look at the top face or the end grain in isolation.
