How To
How to join two pieces of wood together without nails
Woodworking is a hobby that many people enjoy doing. Woodworking is a relaxing hobby that allows you to use your hands to create useful things from wood. Sometimes you may want to join two pieces together of wood without using nails. This article will help you to maintain the beauty of your woodwork projects.
You will first need to trim the edges of your wood pieces before joining them. Do not leave any sharp corners as they could cause problems down in the future. Now it's time to start glueing your boards together.
When working with hardwood, glue should be applied only to one side. If you are using softwoods such pine or cedar, glue should only be applied to one side. Apply the glue to the boards and press them down until they are securely attached. Be sure to let the glue dry before you move 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 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.
Once you've drilled your holes, you'll want to drive the screws through the joint and into the backside of the board. Avoid hitting the board's top surface. Otherwise, you could ruin the finish. Don't drive the screws too far into the end. This will prevent splitting the wood's end grain.
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 will want to choose a product that will be durable for many years. You can choose from oil-based varnishes or polyurethane, shellac and lacquer as examples.
You can find these products at most home improvement stores. Be sure to choose the right one for your project. Keep in mind that certain finishes can be toxic and should not be used indoors. Always wear protective gear when handling any of these finishes.
