    What to do.........

    I am making our new dining table and at some time over this weekend will be putting the top together. The problem I have is do I put two lines of No20 Biscuits in each edge or use wooden dowels as in 19mm oak. The top is made from 4 pieces of Oak 1500x200x38. TIA. Chris
