How To
How to join wood without using nails
Woodworking is a popular hobby. Woodworking is a relaxing hobby that allows you to use your hands to create useful things from wood. There are times when two pieces of wood need to be joined together. This article will explain how to do this so that your woodwork projects stay beautiful.
Before joining the pieces of wood together, you will need to first trim any edges. Do not leave any sharp corners as they could cause problems down in the future. Now you can start gluing the boards together.
If you are working on hardwood, you should only use glue on one side. For softwoods like cedar and pine, glue should be applied to both sides. Once you have applied the glue, press down on the boards until they are fully attached. Before moving onto the next step, make sure the glue has dried completely.
After you have glued your boards, drill holes where you want to insert screws. The size of these holes depends on what type of screw you choose to use. If you plan to use a 1/2 inch wood screw, drill a hole at least 3/4 inches in depth.
Once you have drilled the holes, the next step is to drive your screws through the joint into the board's backside. You should be careful not to touch the board's front surface. This could cause damage. When driving the screws, try to avoid hitting the ends of the screws too much. This will help prevent splitting of the end grain.
Once your project is complete, it's time to protect it against the elements. To do this, you can seal the entire furniture piece or just cover the top. You'll want a product that lasts for many years. Examples include oil-based varnishes and polyurethanes, shellac, lacquer and others.
These products are available at most home improvement stores. It is important to ensure that you purchase the correct product for the job. Don't forget to keep in mind that some finishes are toxic. Always wear protective gear when handling any of these finishes.
