Step 4Biscuit Joining

Biscuit Joining
If you buy lumber that is wider than 2x4 for the upper supports you can skip this step.

I'm cheap and didn't buy more lumber so I biscuit joined the 8 upper supports with #20 biscuits. I started 3 inches from the end and put in a biscuit every six inches.

I glued them in with wood glue and clamped them for about 45 minutes each.

(if you don't know what I mean by biscuits etc. you should probably just buy wider peices of lumber because the tools are a rather large investment)
