Is it bad technique to simply glue together the mitered sides of a jewelry box, then glue the top and bottom, and then slice the lid off? I worry about wood movement and the box coming apart, but so far I haven't had any problems. Would using biscuits add to the stability of the box? I'd like to use splines to hold the mitered corners together, but worry about getting a tight enough fit. I've been wondering about this for some time, so I thought I'd see what you guys had to say about it. Thanks.
