A cabinet maker that I used to work with showed me a new way to join face frames together quickly, and I am wondering how strong the joint really is.
Step 1 glue up the face frame using boards that are 3/4 thick by 2" wide just use butt joints and let the frame dry over night.
Step 2 on the back side of the frame across the butt joint use a biscuit jointer (without any alignment guards attached) and make two biscuit slots that you fill in with biscuits and glue. Finally sand flat and attach to the cabinet. Since the biscuits are on the back side of the frame no one will ever see them.
Has anyone ever heard of this method or used it on any projects?
