- Prevents plywood from splintering: By placing masking tape on the line
you are cutting.
- Hole to big: No problem just mix a little bit of glue with saw dust, fill in
the hole, let dry. Re-drill the hole.
- Prevent glue from oozing: Apply masking tape along side of area to be
glued prevents glue from getting in unwanted places.
- Need time when gluing: Try white glue instead of yellow. It dries slower.
- Stripped out holes: Place one or two toothpicks in the hole, then screw
in the screw, break off toothpicks.
- Spread Glue on edges: Try a toothbrush. Works great, easy clean up.
- Secure wood to work surface: Use clamps so wood won't slip while
cutting.
- When cutting: Saw blade teeth always face away from you.
- Pilot holes: When cutting out circles, squares, etc. First drill hole at
inside edge, large enough for saw blade.
- Rusty blades: Coating blades with WD40 helps them last longer and
keep them from rusting.
- Matching putty: Mix saw dust from the same wood you are using with a
clear epoxy.
- Cut wood easier: Applying paste wax to saw blade teeth.
- Screws: Will go in easier by rubbing a little paraffin wax on first.
- Avoid lost caps: Store your wood glue in a mustard bottle. It has
airtight twist cap, and its free.
- Putty trick: Place a strip of masking tape on area to be nailed. Set
heads, place putty over nail heads, remove tape.
- Gel Stains: Are thicker so less running, color pigment stays suspended
instead of settling on bottom so less stirring. Comes in water or oil
base.
