Neat stuff.



I did a search for "lemon splines" which was the old name for
biscuits.

When I was a young fella a lemon splined joint in the corners of the
door casing was taken as a mark of quality, and also an indication
that the trim had been run up in a cabinet / millwork shop prior to
its arrival onsite.
