The foggytown entity posted thusly:

When cutting through cross grain the tearout at the
back (even with a backer) is a problem.

Use a backer/push block to shove the work through.


"Backer" seems to appear twice here.

Suppose it's worth mentioning that box joints are rarely seen across the
grain because it's strong and easy to glue the long grain entire.

Spiral bits and slower feed rates should help, however.
