How to Patch Broken Wood | Woodworking Lesson

  • How do you patch a broken piece of wood. We show you 3 examples of how to replace missing pieces of wood to restore the original woodwork.
    The first step is to find a matching piece of wood to use for the patch. This needs to be the same species of wood (e.g., use a piece of oak to patch the broken woodwork made of oak). This is important as the grain and color of the wood needs to be as close to the original part as possible.
    The second step is to create a flat, smooth surface to glue in the wood patch. I typically use machines to do this as it’s a quick, constant way to cut into the parts. In one of these examples, I used a table saw and in the other two examples I used a router. The shape you cut out is also important. I like cutting wedge shapes because it allows me to clamp the part in to get a very tight seam between the new patch and the existing woodwork.
    Make sure you spread enough glue on both parts to create glue squeeze out. That way you know you’ve got enough glue in the joint to do the job right! Clamp it all down and wait for the glue to dry.
    The next step is about shaping the patched wood to conceal the repair. I use a router where I can because it’s the fastest way for me to match the profile of the existing woodwork. In some cases, that’s not possible. That’s where I use hand tools to shape the parts to match. By using a standard chisel and a 1/4 radius gouge chisel, I’ve had success in cutting coves and outside curves (see Tool links below). Sanding is the last step, but it’s not a shaping step - the carving is only complete when the profile matches the existing part. Sanding is for smoothing any edges and prepare it for the finish.
    I consider staining and finishing an art. There are craftsmen who have done this all their lives. I recognize I have limitations on my skills here, so when I have a tough challenge, I hire a professional. I work with a professional finishing business where I know I will get the best possible results. Try your stain and finishes on scraps and see how close you can get with the finish before tacking your completed wood patch.

    Scott: your videos are excellent and very informative even for those of us who have been making furniture for years. I just got my first compression bit for Christmas, and it makes a tremendous difference over a straight bit. Very smooth cut and I don’t even have to watch the green direction. No sanding needed either. I highly recommend compression bits.

    If you don't have a table saw you can make a flat spot with a hand plane and get a really flat, smooth gluing surface in about the same time (and safer). Also, you can use a rasp instead of a router with the flush cut bit. On the oak, a chisel can be used to make the recess.

    Good call on carving to match. A much more economical decision than dropping $40 to $120 bucks on a router but that might match.
    Did you consider making a scratch stock? I don't know if that would have been an ideal use of your time, given it only covered a few inches, but they're fun and inexpensive to make

    Great video with on point explaination! I only have a hand held router, is it possible to do the same thing with it?

    • @FixingFurniture
      @FixingFurniture  5 лет назад +2

      Yes, you can cut out flat sections with a handheld router. What you need to do is secure a large flat area for the router to safely travel on. Does that make sense? Scott

  • @Gwynbuck

    Hi, I've been given the job of stripping down, then re-finishing a chair. I'm using paint stripper to get rid of the shellac finish. In doing so, I noticed that the chair's wood was very dry. After sanding it down, I'm thinking of giving it a coating of boiled linseed oil, followed by a sealing coat of varnish. For the latter, I was thinking of using yacht varnish - it's oil-based and the gloss finish gives it a high shine. I could instead use a waterbased varnish. This requires 4 coats and the shine won't be as great. Any thoughts?

    • @FixingFurniture
      @FixingFurniture  5 лет назад +1

      Hi Gwyn. If you're applying oil to the wood, you can't apply water-based varnish on top. The oil will penetrate the wood and give it some nice depth and richness over time. The alternative would be to apply shellac, which can go over oil. If you have a finish that has a dull surface and you want it to shine, experiment with a super fine 3M abrasive pad as it can buff a finish to a shine. I hope that helps. Scott

    You’re the first woodworker I’ve ever heard refer to a router as a “rooter”. Why did you select that as your preferred pronunciation? Technically you’re not wrong but what made you stray from the norm? It took a minute before I realized what you were talking about.

    • @FixingFurniture
      @FixingFurniture  3 года назад +1

      Perhaps my Canadian accent is coming through. As far as I know, I'm prouncing it "Router". There's a common joke that Canadians pronounce "about" funny... maybe the "out" part of the word makes my accent seem odd. Cheers. Scott 🇨🇦

    I hate to sound crass but I’m puzzled by your business model. Surely you charge by the hour. A simple repair might cost, what? Some hundreds of dollars? That would seem to limit your market to antiques, or family heirlooms with sentimental value. I do enjoy watching, however.

    • @FixingFurniture
      @FixingFurniture  11 месяцев назад +1

      It’s a profitable business, repairing furniture from furniture that is brand new and in a box to antiques I provide advice to other furniture repair businesses as well. It’s a good business if you know what you’re doing.
