This was accounted for in the video, and all glues didn't past muster.
She also tested solid wood. I was surprised by the mitered joints and
how they held up, particularly with epoxy.

Also surprised by how pre-gluing or sizing the edge grain miter joints
didn't help at all. I had read sizing mitered picture frames would
greatly strengthen the joints, and was planning on doing that the next
time I make picture frames even though I have a 100% success rate w/o
doing that. Typically, I just glue them and clamp them with my pin nailer.
