I am about to make a picture frame with MDF and will then paint it.
Since it will be painted and I can use joint compound, should I even bother with mitering the corners and just go with butt joints? I have the capability to biscuit join or use pocket holes for actual joining.
And since MDF doesn't like moisture so much, will a tite-bond type glue work or should I try some other glue.
And finally, for MDF, if pocket hole screws are an option, would the fine or course work better? Seems logical to me that the course would be better but never worked with it in MDF.
Thanks all and Happy Holidays.
