Biscuit Joiner Woodworker in case. Power Tools. (#37158-1)

A biscuit joiner (a.k.a. plate joiner) is a good choice for light- to medium-duty joinery. It’s widely used to assemble panels in cabinet carcass construction, window casings, rail and stile doors, face frames, and furniture.

Both corded and cordless models are available. The joiner looks similar to a portable angle grinder, but instead of a grinding wheel it spins a small 4″ saw blade with carbide-tipped teeth. On the front of the joiner is a movable and tiltable fence that registers against the workpiece. The saw blade is then plunged into the material to make a crescent-shaped groove. A match­ing groove is also cut in the opposing piece. Slots are generally made parallel to a board’s edge. Glue is applied to the grooves, an oval shaped “biscuit” (a.k.a. plate) is glued and inserted into the groove and the two pieces are clamped together. As the biscuit absorbs moisture, it expands slightly to fill the groove. Biscuits come in four sizes and are made of wood, metal or plastic. There are also interlocking biscuits that enable joints to be taken apart.
