Review on 🔧 Finger Joint Shank 99 037 by Freud by Sean Maples

This bit definitely does what it says on the tin and does a good job. It forms a mortise and tenon joint, but as seen in the picture, the outside edges on one side become beveled edges that are so thin that they cannot be planed or sanded without tiny pieces falling off. that the connection will be strong, but it should only be used where the edge is visible as you see in the picture and not flat or the front (as if looking in from top to bottom or bottom to top ). the picture). In other words, it is only designed for butt joining parts with a chisel thickness. It doesn't work as a glue line for gluing boards, ie glueing boards side to side, which is what I bought it for. is that I'm disappointed that I had to spend so much money to find out I had to buy a double-sided glue nozzle. Freud has to say that the finger attachment is not a glue attachment for making plates where the edge of the feather is visible. . It doesn't work for this and it seems like the explanation should point someone to a different part if you're doing panels. There is nothing wrong with the bridle, it just needs to explain the purpose. So I'll try to put it another way, the mortise and tenon joint is not good for gluing small pieces together to make a wider board, like in doors with false panels. It is designed to turn narrow short boards into narrow longer boards. This is not intended to make narrow boards wider.
