How To
How to join wood with no nails
Many people love woodworking. It is relaxing and enjoyable because you can create something useful with wood. Sometimes you may want to join two pieces together of wood without using nails. This article will demonstrate how to do so to preserve the beauty of your woodwork.
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.
If you are working with hardwood, only one side should be glue. 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. After applying the glue, let dry the boards before proceeding to the next stage.
Once you've glued your boards together you will need to drill holes in the joints to accommodate screws. The size of these holes depends on what type of screw you choose to use. For example, if you're going to use a 1/2-inch wood screw, then you should drill a hole that is at least 3/4 inches deep.
After drilling your holes, drive the screws into the board's backside. Do not hit the boards' front surfaces. It will ruin the finish. Don't drive the screws too far into the end. This will help prevent splitting of the end grain.
You'll need to protect your completed project from the elements. You can seal the furniture pieces or cover 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.
These products can usually be found at any home improvement store. 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. When handling certain finishes, wear protective gear.
