Hopefully my stick drawing came through below.
I've been asked recently to make a 2x2 cedar frame for 2 stained glass panels. The requestor wants mitered corners and no visible joinery. I tried to talk him in to splined miters but he's insistent on no visible joinery since the finished panel will be hanging from chains in his space and viewable from all sides. I will dado the inside of all pieces to fit the panel into and glue/dowel all joints. The frame will encircle the entire panels.
My question is how is the best way to connect the center section of wood to the mitered top piece other than just glue? Circled in red on the image.
Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks!
