It "depends"(always) on what you do.

If you use a lot plywood or MDF, biscuits come in right handy
for certain projects.

If you are a big turner, biscuits ain't much help.

I have a PC 557 and it comes in handy on occasion but if you want
somthing that will REALLY help out, buy a Kreg jig kit.($120) and
learn how to use pocket holes.

The pocket holes are often used in conjunction with biscuits, which
can make a VERY strong connection.

You will be amazed at how easy pocket holes joinery makes your life.

Biscuits are a big question mark for a lot of people and it depends
on what you will be doing.

I have noticed a few projects using biscuits instead of nails that turn
out looking pretty neat. Is the final look of the project the main
advantage to using biscuits or is there another reason to consider them?
