I bought a Makita years ago because I used them quite a bit. I still
ended up doing a bunch of sanding to get things perfectly flush. For
the past two years, it gathers dust because I started to edge glue only.
With those two years behind the furniture I glued that way, there has
been no issues. I'm done with the biscuit joiner.

I'm going to be putting together a benchtop in the next few weeks and am
wondering if it's worthwhile using biscuits. It seems to me that this would
keep everything aligned a bit better. Maybe cut down on the flattening
time. Or is this just wishfull thinking.
