Clearly this guy doesn’t use handtools very often because he was trying to push cut with a pull saw you got a love it

[cyrilnorrie]

That's a great use for a biscuit joiner. I'm always happy to see other uses for specialized tools. Thanks for sharing!

YASS. I have a biscuit joiner... and now I also have the urge to make splines with it. Thank you!

[gandjboyd]

Awesome idea, now I get to use my biscuit joiner I bought years ago

[csimet]

Nice tutorial. I did this with my mitered shop edge band corners that dress out the plywood tops of my counters. I did not use any special wood, but did it to just reinforce them in place of using brads that get a bit dicy with the thin material and never really hold that well (may split).

BTW... there are many out there that think biscuit jointers are useless and I could not disagree more... they are super handy for applying edge strips/bands to counters & shelves and keep them well aligned as you mount. They are also handy for aligning face frames on cabinets.

I used this same method on a painted picture frame project. Since it was painted I actually used biscuits for the splines. Came out great.

Thanks for sharing. Once again, proof that simple is best! At last, another reason to get my neglected biscuit jointer out!

Excellent! I want to use this in a Japanese frame from pallet wood.

Sweet, never thought of this. Not sure if you’re aware, but I too have scratched my piece plenty of times with that same flush cut handsaw until I discovered the label on one side that says ‘This side up’.

I think you could use biscuits to put the miters together. I do. It makes a really strong joint, instead of just glue. And I really like the contrasting wood color. Nicely done!!

[ashstagwoodworking]

Well this is a different way of making these! Thank for showing us!

Dude! Game changer. I'm definitely using this.

[tubelife]

nice job rounding over that miter joint :) but great use for biscuit joiner, never would have thought of it...

[sapelesteve]

Personally I don't own a biscuit joiner but this is a great tip! Thanks for

[sebixteam]

Nice video, I only have the Domino now but considering getting the Dewalt Biscuit Joiner. One thing I would do is make a jig to keep the joiner in position (45deg from sides) so that the spline start and stop are in the same line vertically.

First cut was close up enough to have allowed the audience to observe the actual cutting, but the spline cut area was completely blocked from view by your arm.

Second cut the camera angle would have been great for the audience to view the actual spline being cut, but the distance was too great.

Good information for cutting off the splines and sanding.

Never even thought about using my biscuit joiner. Thanks for this tip 👍🏼

*Just as I expected I have nothing bad to say about this jointer **MyBest.Tools** make a solid clean and level cut and adjusts in increments of 1/8ths and 1/4s I ran stock 2"x4" x8" at 12' long and had no issue.*
