Hi all

I'm going to put a rebate in a pine door (french doors/lap koint), and am
curious to know whether routing over the centre of a knot would cause a
problem.

I'm going to seal the knots first but am worried that the force of the
router might knock it out?

Any help welcome.

Regards

Matt

other than money back, what's a rebate??


As any experienced fisherman knows, that's what you do with a hook, when
that fishie manages to remove the first worm without getting caught.


In woodworking, a somewhat archaic term with the same meaning as "rabbet",
a form of joinery that a craft master _always_ delegates to his journeyman.
