Solid wood beaded face frame stock is most often used for haunched beaded inset face frame cabinets with inset doors and drawer fronts.
Face frame joinery consisting of pocket screws and hot glue where the glue is missed and the top rail tears right out of the face frame as you pick it up to move it.
This type of stock can also be used for fillers or base molding.
For assembled and rta face frames with beaded stock haunched joinery is used to allow a continuous bead around the frame opening.
Opening a packing box and finding the face frame is no longer attached to the cabinet.
Face frames built with a radius of less than 24 use domino tenon joinery where all the rails meet the stiles and pocket screw joinery on any center stiles.
Then drill two pocket holes photo below.
Center the pocket hole jig on the end of a part to be drilled and clamp both firmly to your workbench.
