do yourself a favor and get a biscut cutter. so much eazier and next to
fool proof. even i can get it right every time. great for styles and
rails and for gluing up match boards for making end panels etc.

You know, I had one of those, a PC 555. I got rid of it a couple of
years later on Ebay. The problem is that it wouldn't reliably put the
biscuit slot in parallel to the work surface. Perpendicular to the
edge, sure. But that lack of parallelism made it useless.

I think the issue there was that the fence was very difficult to keep
parallel to the cutter.

Do you know if any other biscuit joiner has a fence that is reliably
parallel to the cutter?
