How To
How to make wooden joints
This tutorial will show you how to join two pieces of wood together. We will use the pocket hole joint, which is drilling holes in the wood to join them. If your wood is straight and flat, this method will work well. Dowel joinery might be a better option if your wood is not straight or flat. Here are the steps
-
Drill Pocket Hole Joints. Start by measuring and marking the spot where the pocket hole joint will be placed. Next, drill 3/4 inch holes in each end of each piece using a handheld drilling machine or jigsaw.
-
Sand Smooth. Sanding the wood's edges will help ensure that the joint won't split later.
-
Glue both sides together. Apply glue on both sides of the wooden plank. Allow it to sit for approximately 5 minutes before you clamp the pieces together.
-
Secure the pieces together. After the glue has dried properly, clamp the pieces together to make sure they are flush.
-
Trim Joinery. After the glue dries, trim any excess wood around your joint.
Be sure to leave enough space between each piece so that they can be turned inside-out.
