It should be snug and comfortable, allowing the wearer to move freely. Make sure you find an apron with a proper fit. If necessary, consider a model that has adjustable straps.

How To

How to make wood joint

This tutorial will demonstrate how to join two pieces together of wood. We will use the pocket hole joint, which is drilling holes in the wood to join them. This method works great if your wood is straight and smooth. Try dowel joinery instead if your wood doesn't look straight. Here are the steps

  1. Drill Pocket Hole Joints. Measure and mark the location where you would like to place the pocket hole joint. Then drill 3/4 inch deep holes into the ends of each piece of wood using a jig saw or handheld drilling machine.
  2. Sand Smooth. Sanding the edges of the wood will help to prevent the joint from splitting later.
  3. Glue Together. Apply glue to both the ends of the wood. Let the wood sit for 5 minutes, then clamp it together.
  4. Attach the Pieces together. After the glue has dried you can attach the pieces to form a flush joint.
  5. Trim Joinery. Trim any excess wood surrounding the joint once the glue has dried completely.

Allow enough space between pieces so you can turn them inside out.
