How To
How to make wood joint
This tutorial will teach you how to join two pieces wood together. We'll use the "pocket hole joint," which means we drill holes in the wood and then glue them together. If your wood has a straight grain, smooth surface, you can use this method. Try dowel joinery instead if your wood doesn't look straight. Here are the steps
-
Drill Pocket Hole Joints. First, measure the area where you wish to place the pocket joint. Use a jigsaw or handheld drilling machine to drill 3/8 inch deep holes at the ends of each wood piece.
-
Sand Smooth. You can sand the edges of the wood to ensure that it doesn't split.
-
Glue the two sides of the wood together. Apply glue to both ends of the wood. Allow it to sit for approximately 5 minutes before you clamp the pieces together.
-
Clamp the Pieces Together. After the glue has dried you can attach the pieces to form a flush joint.
-
Trim Joinery. After the glue dries completely, trim off any excess wood around the joint.
Be sure to leave enough space between each piece so that they can be turned inside-out.
