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
It may shatter it and spit it out at you. I would be inclined to try and
remove the knot and replace it with a plug first. If it is only a small
knot and you are only likley to be removing part of it because of the
way it is laying then you will probably be lucky.
Sealing the knot will do nothing to alleviate the problem
