- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 มิ.ย. 2019
- Edge to edge joints make wider boards from narrow ones. It's one of the nine essential joints you should consider for your project. WOOD magazine's Craig Ruegsegger shows you how to make the joint, and why it might be the best choice for your project.
Does it look like you're missing some videos in your playlist? If you see a gray Private window, don't worry, you haven't missed a thing. In fact you should be excited because that tells you we have more videos to come in the weeks to follow. I could tell you the titles but that would ruin the surprise. Thanks for watching and enjoy - now go make something!

This is my first attempt and I am 100% more comfortable having watched this video. Thank you.
"I use a finger. Its always there and I know where it is" ... Highlight of the video
There’s a Siddharth Kumar who goes to my high school. Totally off topic, but cool!
@@elliot6166 Nice to know :-)
can every woodworker say that with confidence?
Except the guy who skipped the safety class
LOL -- "I like to use my finger. It's always there and I know where it is."
Awesome summary of the process, and starting with the board break test is brilliant -- sell the technique, *then* show the technique.
Thank you!

For someone like me, I have only had a few wood working skills. This is so informative, along with comments below, I can now see how a glued edge to edge is very strong. This is the start of making my own cutting board. This is going to be fantastic. Yes, I do understand that I have to use hard wood for that project, like oak, birch, hard maple, mahogany, etc. I have been working on learning about epoxy tables as well, so I can show off my handiwork to my family.
Finished face of the boards up/down on the table saw is a great tip! I futz around a lot to make the blade perfectly vertical but flipping the boards means it doesn’t have to be perfect. (Insert forehead slap here)
Very good and very true I been doing woodworking for 45 years and you explain it very well thank you for teaching the younger people
Thanks for showing the strength of wood glue. 😊
Great tip on how to get the boards to fit together before gluing. Thanks!
Lovely pieces of wood there. I always say NEVER sand the mating edges. It can seal the edges and the glue may not sink into the wood. Sawn edges are best, planed edges are okay. Excellent video.
Great video. I am working on a project and about to glue up some walnut. This video confirms everything I was taught and I know my panel will come out good. As they are 48" I am using #20 biscuits too just to keep things straight.
that wood panel was a paid actor
Very helpful if I had a table saw or a joiner. But once I figure out how to get clean edges I’ll use these tips!
I'm new to wood working and this video was very informative...
I definitely needed to see this. Thank you.
Awesome tips Sir an thanks for the knowledge.
Good instruction, one glue up complete using the table saw and this technique. Did recheck the alignment of the blade, had to realign and reset the angle to 90 degrees, then things smoothed out completely.
Thank you for mentioning the type of blade used on the table saw. Definitely need to change my blade
Just wipe off squeezed out glue with damp cloth immediately after clamping. Glue is water soluble and wipes up nicely. Thanks for video.
Good solid presentation of information. I'm just a beginner, but I think I read somewhere that the University of Michigan did a study (They are always' studying something up there.) that found a glue joint is 40% stronger if glue is applied to BOTH surfaces. I don't know about that but have taken to doing it, just in case.
-Veteran '66-68
That kinda makes sense in that both surfaces are equally "wetted" before joining. But since the joint is already stronger than the wood, it probably doesn't make much difference. Maybe if you're using a very dense, tight-grain wood in a stressed situation it would. Interesting, and not a bad practice nonetheless.
!!GREAT TIPS!! ...Thanks and greetings from Mexico, my friend.
Thank you for all of that very good advice.
Thanks. Very informative!
Great instruction!
Very useful video. Thank you very much.
Awesome video - thanks for posting!
Thank you for this great video
‘Just enough’. Reminds me of chef school many many moons ago ‘Hey chef, how long do I cook this?’ CHEF “Till it’s done”.
i went to glue up a panel the other day ad was talking to my self about how much glue to use and i said out loud 'just enough squeeze out' and my son heard me and said "I think the Mafia says that too!" I was on the floor in tears!!!!!!!
Thank you for producing this video. The little trick accounting for variations from 90 degrees saved me a significant amount of time.
Additionally thank you for demonstrating how to check if boards are aligned properly with the double square.
Thank you for this video.,
Great tip. Chiseling the glue at "jello" stage. Fanks.
Thank you Sir 😊
@1:13, you don't wanna miss that part! hahaha. Great video, thanks for sharing, been ALWAYS wondering about that!!
Thank you for your help 🫡
Wow my friend thank you for your tips
I really enjoyed your video
"I like using my finger cuz its always there"
I don't know where my fingers are😂
Very good vídeo
I give a 10 to the way you explain
I'm new to woodworking (disabled Cancer patient) I was shocked at the strength of wood glue! Thanks for the video! BE SAFE,GOD BLESS!🇺🇸🙏❤
Thank you for the tips!
Gracias!!
I watched 100s of videos for woodworking since I just started it and you answered several of my questions in one video! Thanks a lot.
Very nice sir
Great video. Is this process any different for thicker heavier boards? For instance, if I wanted to join two 3-foot pieces of 1.5 inch thick birch for a total length of 6 feet for use as a table. The table will not only be heavy by its own weight but also potentially hold one to two hundred pounds of unevenly distributed weight on top, once set up. Is it worth considering using dowels or biscuits or even creating a tongue & groove edge instead?
i do this & do some small of holes on the edges & clamp it thank u
This video is only 3 years old but it looks 20 years old.
Great video, bot fast threw table saw procedure but good.
Great video! I’m about to glue together 3 pieces, would you recomend to do all 3 at once, or shoudl i go 2+1?
Good Stuff 👍👍 So if I wanted to add a couple flat braces underneath glue should hold them so I won't need wood screws right?
Thanks a ton for that glue strength demonstration. 👍
"I prefer to use my finger. It's always there and I know where it is" hahaha
RIP Wood
Make certain that you have a straight or planed edge on the outboard side of the cut. I had a mild bow on my outboard edge on a board causing an uneven edge for the glue joint.
You can of course use a jointing plane. My favourite being a wooden Marples bladed jack plane though I also have metal bodied planes.
yep , I have my beloved # 7 stanley plane will do the job for me 😂
@@athmostafa2462 I also have an as yet un-boxed Silverlive No 7 which is the same pattern as the Stanley (which will be getting a review soon...
@@BensWorkshop NICE 😄
@@athmostafa2462 Cheers.
Do you have any recommendations on videos on how to do this correctly? I keep ending up with rather curved edges....
Cool. So that means that even 1/4 inch would be fine to glue?
What kinda glue you use?
I want to join 2 boards of different thickness and still have one surface flush. Any advice? I don’t need perfection, I want to use, not glue, but flat steel irons-just 2 or 3.
The video quality looks like from the 80's. But anyway, thanks for this great tip!
What glue did you use please?
What i do when i glue iwood together and bits of glue pops up i just get a damp cloth and wwipe it off before it gets hard
Is table saw necessary? Or can hand planer give me this straight fine edge?
A hand plane is the perfect tool for this.
How wide are tool boxes?
1:23 Love this but doesn't glue strength decay over time?
Maybe, but not enough to make a difference.
Or that poplar is a soft piece of wood?
Dear sir... Very nice and clear video and useful information... However the script at the bottom is s annoying... Hopefully in future you move the script to top RHS.
Regards
What glue is used for such joints? I am a beginner please advise
Elmer's wood glue is the best
Can I ask what glue did you use?
@@Wood thanks
Good vid exactly what I needed
While these instructions are accurate, they are over simplified.
Here are a couple of additional tips:
- when choosing board orientation for a seam, study grain direction and color. This will minimize the appearance of the joint.
- if using the table saw method- the quality of the saw is important. Smaller more affordable hobby or jobs often do not have flat surfaces so this may not work as easy as displayed. Also, if you have a HQ saw, it needs to be finely tuned/adjusted.
- after the glue-up, do not sand or work the joint for a few days. The surrounding wood would had absorbed some of the moisture, slightly swelling the material along the joint, and if your work the material to early - and the material moisture equalizes after you sand the joint - it will shrink resulting in a slightly uneven surface along the glue joint.
Please comment and add your additional suggestions
Protect your clamps and joint by using some waxed paper between the clamp and wood. With bar clamps as demonstrated, the zinc in the pipe will react and discolor wood, particularly oak unless you are planning to plane the board sown after the glue-up.
👌👌👌
please show how to do this without using any power tools. I have hand saw, small plane, 3 chisels, mallet, hammer, screwdrivers, T- square, ruler and pencil. And mothers kitchen table. thank you.
"How can glue be strong enough to hold boards together?"
Asks a person who has no idea how glue works.
What is the name of the glue....
But not everyone has a joiner?
What if you don't have a table saw. I don't have enough room to store one.
Could someone please help me? Would this support 200 pounds I'm worried of it not holding
No it would not.
Sir please make a video for joint 20mm wood with 10mm wood like that joint.
What about using a jointer
Thanks.
What is the name of the paste
We use a PVA woodworking glue, such as Titebond.
Important: What glue did you use?
Elmer's is the best
I don't understand why you wouldn't wipe the beads of squeezed-out glue immediately, while they're still very liquid and super easy to wipe away, or at the very latest--a few minutes after clamping.
Glue name
Good video, but I cringe at the lack of a riving knife :-(
This method does not account well for wood movement, ends will likely split with enough moisture.
What I don't understand is why a tutorial which is ostensibly for beginners uses tools to create the flat edges which, in all likelihood, are not going to be owned, or accessible, to most of the aforesaid beginners.
How do beginners with limited access to power tools going to create the required straight edges?
Kurt Adkins because every hobby or profession requires a initial investment to get started. In this case wood working tools, that’s why
@@2shoestoo Sorry, that's BS. A table saw or joiner is not an entry-level level tool, and certainly not at the level of how to glue two bits of wood together.
Kurt Adkins, ok, i guess you could resort to 🧶 knitting
@@2shoestoo It seems to me that you're the one trying to pull the wool over people's eyes.
Kurt Adkins and what do you do to sharpen a knife? Go rub it on a rock?, no you purchase a knife sharpener to do the job right just like woodworking. What an idiot!!!
Unbelievable
Jointer? I don't even know her.
If the glue is stronger than wood, shouldn't we make furniture out of glue rather then wood?
detail be better
Too dependent on expensive machines.

No riving knife. Instant fail.
Wood Magazine? A jointer with no eyepro? Shame on you.
