A little while ago Keith Brown from Rag 'n' Bone Brown did some great testing on end-grain to end-grain joints to see how much stronger the joints were using biscuits - the results were really interesting - there's a link to Keith's video below! Today I'm going to carry out a similar test but this time on end-grain to face-grain MDF, which is a joint I use quite often in the workshop for MDF cabinets, shelving and the like. Let's see how strong these joints are with and without a biscuit - welcome back to Test Tuesday!
