How To
How to join wood with no nails
Woodworking is a favorite hobby. It's fun and relaxing because you can use your hands to make something useful from wood. However, there are times when you want to join two pieces of wood together without having to use nails. 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 have done that, you can begin gluing your boards together.
You should only glue one side of hardwood. You should glue both sides if you are working with softwoods such as pine and cedar. Apply the glue to the boards and press them down until they are securely attached. Make sure you let the glue dry before moving on to the next step.
After you have glued the boards together, drill holes in the joints where you intend to place screws. Depending on what type screw you choose, the size of these holes will depend on how big they are. For example, if you intend to use 1/2-inch wood screws, you need to drill a hole that is at most 3/4 inches deep.
After drilling your holes, drive the screws into the board's backside. Be careful not to hit the front surface of the board, or else you'll ruin the finish. Avoid hitting the screws' ends too often when driving screws. This will prevent splitting in the end grain of the wood.
After your project is completed, you will need to protect it from the weather. You have two options: seal the whole furniture piece or just the top. You'll want a product that lasts 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. Make sure you get the right product for your job. Some finishes are toxic and should not ever be used indoors. Always wear protective gear when handling any of these finishes.
