How To
How to make wood joints
This tutorial will help you join two pieces of wooden together. We will use the "pockethole joint," which means that we drill holes in the wooden pieces and then glue them together. This method works great if your wood is straight and smooth. If your wood isn't straight or flat, you might want to try another method, such as dowel joinery. Here are the steps
-
Drill Pocket Hole Joints. Start by measuring and marking the spot where the pocket hole joint will be placed. Use a jigsaw or handheld drilling machine to drill 3/8 inch deep holes at the ends of each wood piece.
-
Sand Smooth. The wood's edges can be sanded to prevent splitting.
-
Glue Together. Apply glue to both ends of the wood. Allow the wood to rest for five minutes before clamping it together.
-
Connect the pieces. Once the glue has dried, clamp the pieces together so they are flush.
-
Trim Joinery. Trim any excess wood surrounding the joint once the glue has dried completely.
Make sure to leave enough room between the pieces so that you can turn them inside and out.
