Hi this is the best video I have seen about biscuit jointing simple and to the point. Thanks Nick one arm💪🏼🧔🏼♂️🏴
Awesome, thank you!
Fantastic tutorial, Tomasz! Thanks a bunch! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you kindly my friend. All the best 👍
I have used my biscuit joiner for a table panel glue up and it really helped a lot to keep the surface smooth and edges perfectly aligned. Thanks for the video Tomasz. Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
Yes its a great tool that many forget about because of the ultra expensive Domino 🤣
Thank you Best Wishes
Nice one Tomasz! I picked up a new biscuit joiner today and I came straight here to find one of your fab tutorials 👍👍👍
Glad that my videos are some help 😁👍
Hello Thomas just wanted to say I enjoy your videos very insightful all the way from British Columbia Canada
Looking forward to seeing new ones
Thank you very much for your kind words 😁👍
Very helpful. Thanks!
Thank you kindly for watching 👍
Great video. Super informative and straight to the point. I’m going to try out my new joiner now.
Glad that my video was some help 👍
11:00 - you forgot something very important ... how do you reference the "vertical slots" to be the correct distance in from the edge of the board? When you assembled at 11:36, you missed it by MILES !!!
I realise that you mentioned using a fence or something later in the video, but it would have been good to show the technique.
I wasn't aiming for the dead on edge, just the general position of the two pieces. And yes you need to set up a fence for accurate positioning of the slots 👍
Hi Tomasz another great video, thank you. What biscuits are you using as certain sites claim that Trend biscuits (what I have) do not fit correctly and only Silverline biscuits will fit?
Any cheapest I can find on the internet. If you are not sure that they will fit then measure the blade you got (thickness wise as this must be an issue) and then see the dimensions of the biscuits
Great explanation as usual, thanks very much. It seems to me though that I'd be better off practicing with dowels. Haven't made any panels yet so have it all to look forward to, as soon as I can afford enough clamps... Cheers!
Dowels are very good, they add a tone of strength to a joint however they don't give you any wiggle room. You either get them perfect or not.
Yes, dowels are very difficult to align properly unless you have a very accurate (expensive) jig.
The only other way is to use those little metal pin thingies that you poke into holes made in one panel, then knock the panels together to make centre-punch marks in the second panel. Even so, it's almost impossible to drill the second panel's holes perfectly so they never fit together without requiring some "oval slotting".
@@johncoops6897 Thanks very much.
How much 'play' do you get using standard cutter setting and standard biscuits. I mean can you move one panel (say) 3mm left or right, or is it like a dowel, only fits together on one position only. .
You do have some play yes. Can't say how much, at least 2mm each way I think. But it depends on settings.
the biscuits are normally made of compressed birch wood when glue applied they expand, if they are to tight put them in the micro wave for a minute they will shrink if they are too loose spray a drop of water i have a dewalt but they say always reference from the base not the fence used mine now for 10 years very good I think they work well
Great tips there thank you
Thanks for making this vedio. Hope you can help me, as my joiner cuts are very loos. Any advise how I can fix that? Thanks for sharing.
Hi, I got a whole series of basic tutorials on using a jointer, thickness planer and a whole video on milling process. A good straight joint starts with straight edges on your boards.
Sorry I missed the word biscuit there. I have seen all your vedios. It's my biscuit joiner cuts are too loos for the biscuits. Any advice is welcome and appreciated. Thanks
@@vs77mail hmm well I'm guessing that the slot is too thick for the biscuits you are using. To solve that issue you got two options. Change the blade I your biscuit joiner to a smaller one that will accommodate the thickness of the biscuits or the other option is to try and buy thicker biscuits.
However if you are referring to a problem where the slot is too wide then you just need to adjust the depth stop on the machine.
If the biscuits are too loose in the slots, simply spray the biscuits lightly with water and let them swell a bit fatter before assembly.
Top video as usual Tomasz, I understand that this biscuit jointer isn't too expensive but why not simply use one of your routers with a suitable biscuit cutting bit?
Hi and thank you. Yes you can do that as well but with this dedicated tool it's just much easier and quicker. At least I find it that way. I feel with a router I got a bigger chance of making an error and I think it would take me longer to set up.
i got the erbauer one cheap (£60) a year or so ago and they are very useful little machines.
Yes they can come in handy in many situations 👍
@@CasualDIY for the money they seem a great tool. and im not convinced an expensive one is really needed as long as it works properly. bit cheaper than a festool domino but i guess not really same thing.
@@kanedNunable that's the thing it's a totally different tool however still very useful and yes cheaper
Around 10:07 we can see that to depth gauge is lose, you should tighten the bolt :)
Hehe I noticed that later and yes all sorted 👍🤣
I got the DeFault one but after buying a Domino it’s been gathering dust 😢
One day when I win the lottery I'll get myself a Domino 🤣👍
Although I do have the mortise jig for a palm router and yes its not perfect but it does the job😁
@@CasualDIY 👍👍👍
