Hello folks,
I recently made a harvest table, and was having an issue with the table top. It was made of planed and jointed 2x4 spruce, 8 ft long. I joined it using biscuit joinery #20's, and glued the biscuits and glue along the edges and clamped tight. It had three panels seperately joined so I could pane the three panels in my planer, and glued and biscuit joined the panels.
My issue is it seems that the last panel joined up seemed to ramp up lengthwise about 1/4". I fastened it to the end frames using lee valley table top fasteners, and when I added the screws it seemed to suck it back down so it all was flat. Is this going to be an issue? I've been racking my brain about why it happened since it all was the exact same dimensions. The only thing different would be the slot for the biscuits connect the last panel to the middle one was slightly lower than the others I noticed. it was slightly below half the width instead of directly in the middle like the others. Would cause the issue where it ramps that whole up?
Cheers
