How To

How to join wood with no nails

Woodworking is a hobby that many people enjoy doing. You can make useful items from wood with your hands, which is both relaxing and fun. You may need to join two pieces without the use of nails. This article will teach you how to do this to keep your woodwork projects looking great.

Before joining the pieces of wood together, you will need to first trim any edges. You don't want any sharp corners to cause 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. Use glue on both the sides for softwoods, such as cedar or pine. Once you have applied the glue, press down on the boards until they are fully attached. Before you proceed to the next step, be sure to let the glue dry completely.

After you've glued your boards, you'll want to drill holes into the joints where you plan to insert screws. Depending on what type screw you choose, the size of these holes will depend on how big they are. For example, if your screw is a 1/2-inch wooden screw, drill a hole that is at minimum 3/4 inches deep.

After drilling the holes, you can drive the screws into your board's backside. You should be careful not to touch the board's front surface. This could cause damage. Avoid hitting the screws' ends too often when driving screws. This will prevent the wood from splitting.

Protect your finished project now. You have two options: seal the whole furniture piece or just the top. It doesn't matter what method you use, you want something that will last many years. Examples include oil-based varnishes and polyurethanes, shellac, lacquer and others.

You can find these products 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.
