No, you're exactly right. Just a PITA to deal with the holes and shrinkage of fillers. Lap joint is a a little more front end work, but the sanding is quick and it doesn't require another specialty tool/special screws.


No, the PITA started when you brought that first game home, with that gleam in your eye.....

Is there a possibility you could do a tutorial(pictures or video) to share your knowledge on cutting and fitting a proper lap joint as it pertains to the above described cabinet repair? Perhaps illustrate tips and tricks for glue selection as well as different techniques and caveats of material types(particle board, vs plywood vs MDF)

I'm sure that although there are many example posts on this type of repair, there is room for improvement in knowledge and technique at large.

Thank you in advance for any wisdom you can be enticed to share!

You are a wealth of knowledge on cabinets and their variations and a valuable resource... but you are mistaken in this case.

As we say in the FGC: skill issue, bro.

More likely, you're using a water based glue, which would be what causes the added moisture in the substrate.

hehe I simply stated what has and has not worked for me. No need to get so defensive.
 
Ah, did that come off as defensive? Didn't bother me at all, I was trying to compliment you before telling you it was probably your fault. :)
