How To
How to join two pieces of wood together without nails
Woodworking is a hobby that many people enjoy doing. It is relaxing and enjoyable because you can create something useful with wood. There are times when two pieces of wood need to be joined together. This article will teach you how to do this to keep your woodwork projects looking great.
Before you can join the wood pieces together, you need to remove any rough edges. Avoid leaving sharp edges that could lead to problems later. Once you've done this, you're ready to start gluing your boards together.
When working with hardwood, glue should be applied only to one side. For softwoods like cedar and pine, glue should be applied to both sides. Press the boards down until the glue is fully incorporated. Make sure you let the glue dry before moving on to the next step.
After you've glued your boards, you'll want to drill holes into the joints where you plan to insert screws. Depending on the type of screw that you use, the size of these holes will vary. If you are going to use a half-inch wood screw, you will need to drill at least 3/4 inch deep.
Once you've drilled your holes, you'll want to drive the screws through the joint and into the backside of the board. You should be careful not to touch the board's front surface. This could cause damage. Don't drive the screws too far into the end. This will help prevent splitting of the end grain.
Protect your finished project now. You can either cover the entire furniture or just the top. You will want to choose a product that will be durable for many years. Oil-based varnishes are, among others, polyurethanes shellac, laquer, and other oil-based products.
These products can generally be found in any home improvement shop. It is important to ensure that you purchase the correct product for the job. Also, remember that some finishes are toxic and should never be used indoors. Wear protective gear whenever you are handling them.
