One of my (not immediate) future projects is a couple of sofa tables.
Each will be about 9' long, 16" wide. I plan on using black granite tile
for the top supported by ply. The tile will be surrounded by a 3/4"
mahogany frame approximately 3" wide. The aprons will also be 3/4" x 3"+-
mahogany. I want something resembling a parson's table. Now the
problem:...

I would like for the meeting edges of apron and frame to be mitered. I
could use a 3/4 x 3/4 glue block on the inside of one or the other to keep
them aligned while gluing but I'm thinking that getting that perfectly
aligned to the mahogany could be problematic. Especially given the
length.

My next thought was to run the already mitered edges on a miter lock
router bit on a router table. I have never used one but it seems to me
that it too could be problematic unless both apron and frame are perfectly
straight and flat over the entire length. Another potential problem is
the relative delicacy of the mitered edge...it would have to be used to
guide on either the table of fence, depending upon which board was being
routed. (I would NOT want to accomplish the miter itself with the router,
just the interlocking part of the profile...the miter would have been done
on a saw).

I've never had occasion to use one of these bits and would welcome input
about their use. Ditto on alternative methods of joining frame to apron.

If I am reading you correctly you want the apron to be at the immediate
edge of the top and the joint that joints the apron and top will mitered
joint, probably a 45 degree joint.

Done perfectly it that joint looks great. If not perfectly the joint
may not be close properly. Or the sharp edges of the joint at the
corner would be easily dinged before, during and or after assembly.

IF your apron was backed off from the point/edge of the top miter point
edge and attached say 1/8" shy of reaching the edge of the top you could
plain or sand the top Point/Edge back to the face of the apron and
essentially move the miter joint down from the top edge/corner of the top.

I could show you an illustration better than I can explain it. ;~)
Zoom in on the joint.

Yeah, that was/is my concern. Not so much after - or even during -
assembly but before...using that sharp, delicate edge to guide on the
surface of the router table surface or fence while cutting the locking
profile.

Yeah, I've considered that, might wind up doing it. Sure would like a

I bought one of those bits and stopped using it for a few reasons.
1. Everything has the be absolutely perfect for them to join correctly
and they are a bit of a PITA to join and clamp. The gets exacerbated by
length.
2. I determined they are pretty much a novelty and a solution to a

3. The are better joints and better joinery.

I'm having trouble picturing the joint your are trying to accomplish,
due to ignorance and beer. :-) But perhaps a decorative spline might
suit your needs.

Easy to picture...

1. 2 boards, each 3/4 x 3 x 108
2. miter one long edge of each
3. join the mitered edges so the boards are at 90 degrees to each other

Beer worn off yet?

A spline could work; basically, that is what a lock miter bit makes.
Biscuits could work too. The problem with all of them is getting
everything to line up perfectly over a considerable distance, Hmm...naybe

All the more reason to NOT use those bits. I was making a long joint
and it was a major PITA squeezing that joint together the whole length.
That locking miter joint would work for short lengths of stock or end
grain joints, which would really benefit from that joint. There is
absolutely no room for error with that joint and it's very difficult to
get the glue to squeeze out, as well, meaning all the more difficult to
get a tight fit.

Beer worn off yet?


Yes, and the coffee has kicked in. :-D

Biscuits could work too. The problem with all of them is getting

If I were doing it from scratch, I might go total old-school, low tech
(are nail guns low tech?) and just edge glue the entire thing, and work
my way along with a brad nailer to keep it lined up for clamping. If
you don't want to see the nails, perhaps a pin nailer would work. You
might get lucky and get a tight joint without clamping if you go easy on
the glue.

If you were to go the spline rout, consider gluing the spline into one
side, first, letting it dry, then gluing the other piece to it. I can
see how the spline would eliminate the need for 90 degree clamping jigs.
The nails/pins *should* accomplish the same thing.

Made a jig and some angled clamping blocks, with scraps, of course:

Took about 30 minutes, but well worth the effort. I still have the

Sounds much too fiddly. Why not assemble the frame and plywood, bevel the
edges of both it and the glued-together apron, and glue the whole circumference
in one gluing operation. Cut the top frame oversize by a few millimeters.
Lay the top on a flat surface, upside down, apply glue. Just drop the frame
onto it. No clamping, just gravity. After the glue is dry,
clean up any and all top overhang with a router and pattern bit, or plane.

I'd leave the tile attachment to the last, maybe after finishing the wood.

You are using a plywood base, might pockets hole be an answer? Would
also make for dry fitting your side pieces marking the corner joints
and fitting them possible. You can also remove them after the glue
dries.

The nails/pins *should* accomplish the same thing.

Yeah, that is what I would do, don't want nail holes - even teensy brad
holes - in my mahogany

At the moment, I am leaning toward biscuits (good excuse to buy a plate
joiner) and have pretty much trashed the miter lock bit idea. Thanks
for your input.


Yeah, Karl's joint looked great!
I would ask him how he clamped it. That's the real tricky part.


Well, ;~) I have done this joint and used pocket hole screws on the
back side.


That's what I did last time.
