: Why are you scarfing? Most people just use a butt joint placed over
: a form. It is 'way faster.

That depends on the tools you have available.

I use Nick Schade's belt sander method because it creates a more accurate, neater, quicker join than I could produce with any of the saws I have.

Joining that way works best if you keep the joins OFF the forms.
