How To
How to make wooden joints
This tutorial will help you join two pieces of wooden together. We will use the pocket hole joint, which is drilling holes in the wood to join them. If your wood has a straight grain, smooth surface, you can use this method. Dowel joinery might be a better option if your wood is not straight or flat. Here are the steps
-
Drill Pocket Hole Joints. To start, measure and mark where you want to put the pocket hole 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 together. Apply glue to both ends of the wood. Let it sit for about 5 minutes before clamping the pieces together.
-
Clamp the Pieces Together. After the glue has dried you can attach the pieces to form a flush joint.
-
Trim Joinery. Trim the excess wood around the joint after the glue has dried completely.
Allow enough space between pieces so you can turn them inside out.
