Please don't be too disparaging to me as I intend to use butt joints for my softwood garden furniture. I fixed some bannisters last week using home made 18mm (big) dowels
with grooves, going in deep and the work is very solid. However, folk on You tube are using sunken bolts, covered with short dowels so that the bolts don't show.
Which would you suggest please?
And can I use a filler on knots before knotting?
Thanks to all by the way for your recent help
