I second the spline.

I think Bj is on the right track. Even if you could use a glue joint bit for the edge of the particle board it would be difficult to smooth and very hard on the router bit. I suggest you put a groove in the panel edge and either use a spline joint or put a tongue on the pine board.

What do you mean about "difficult to smooth""? And how much harder is particle board in comparison to some other wood, say pine? I thought that carbide is hard enough that it won't wear out fast in wood.
