We always got out material out 1/8th over on each edge for bars, muntins and “intermediate” rails. The tear-out by chain mortiser would be cut off by the “sticker”. We were usually using N.E. white pine. But we also had orders for yellow pine, mahogany,walnut, fir , and other woods. Top rails were always made to exact size. Bottom rails were always made 1/8th over size. Strict standardization of all processes is lacking in many modern shops.
