I'm getting ready to glue up some panels for an electronics rack case
I'm building for a client. The longest panels will be 42".

In what I think was a table saw thread, maybe a year ago, someone
mentioned that they get a glue-up-ready edge joint with their table
saw. I do have a jointer, but I also have a good table saw with a good
blade, a long rip fence and a long outfeed table.

Any of you guys remember writing that?
Anyone else glue up panels with the saw cut alone?
Is there a better saw blade for this?

Tablesaw is the only way I've ever glued up a panel. With a good blade,
I don't see the need for jointing. My blade is a Ridge Carbide, but I'm
sure many others leave a good finish also.

You may have been the poster I was thinking about, Ed.
