What happens here
Cut 1x2 selected pine pieces to size for the slatted safety rail. These will form the vertical slats and horizontal rails. Use a Festool Domino joiner to cut mortises (rectangular holes) into the ends of the vertical slats and along the inside edges of the horizontal rails. Apply wood glue to the mortises and insert the rectangular Domino tenons. Assemble the entire slatted panel by fitting the tenons into the corresponding mortises, ensuring a tight and strong joint. Clamp the assembly while the glue dries. This method creates a robust joint suitable for a safety rail.
Goal: Cut 1x2 pine pieces for the slatted safety rail, create mortises with a Domino joiner, and assemble with wood glue and Domino tenons for a strong, aesthetically pleasing joint.
