  • I used a Kreg R2 Rocket Pocket Hole Jig to repair a crack in a dining table. Using this method was quick and easy.

    Saw a tip on another channel that used a shop vac to pull the glue through the crack. I can't wait to try this, thank you so much!

    Wow. Now that’s exactly what I needed and in only 2 1/2 minutes instead of 30? You are a natural teacher. I will use your link to buy the supplies if possible.

      The pocket hole jig I used on that was an old one. This one is no longer available. I believe the Kreg company still makes similar ones. Thanks for watching.

    Good one mate. I'm not usually a pocket-hole fan but this is an excellent example of where they really work. Cheers Tom.

    This is a great tip. I like it. I still have my eyes open for a round table at my favorite thrift stores. The virus closures are making my search quite a bit more difficult, but I'm gonna keep looking until I find one. Stay safe.

    I've found that using one of those injectors made for injecting brine or maranade into chicken/turkey/etc with the metal tips like a huge syringe works great for wood glue. Or clamp it all together, then use very thin CA glue like "Hot Stuff" from Satellite City (woodcraft sells it) and even clamped together, this glue will follow the entire crack and hold better than wood glue. I use this when fixing cracks in Rifle and shotgun stocks and ive never had it fail.

    Save an old gift card for squeezing the glue in the split, also if it is possible use dental floss to really spread the glue in there.

    I use a shop vac to suck glue into a narrow crevice from the opposite side.

    I noticed that you don’t have links to your supplies. A lot of other people include links for the supplies they use because they get a payment when people buy their supplies through the RUclipsrs link. I would have been happy to do that.

    You can also use dental floss to work the glue into the crack

    Not the accepted antique restorer technique. Ultimately, long term, these screws will create weak spots and new to be removed by a future restorer.

    If there's dirt in that crack, then no amount of glue will hold it together. Best to spend some time with some distilled water or DI water, and a wool cloth or fine brush. Let dry then proceed . . .

    Would this work where the split is directly in the wood and not at a join?

    Wood is very powerful and this wood already told you which way it wants to move. This crack is certain to come back.

    Would pocket hole screws work on split chair seat

    • @AlleyPicked
      @AlleyPicked  3 года назад

      Chair seats are thicker so it might not be very effective. It really depends how bad the separation is. In some cases you can squeeze glue into the crack and clamp. Sometimes you can use glue and insert a small shim or piece of veneer. Difficult to say without looking at the damage.

    Can it be done in a seat

      I don't see why not. Wood is wood :-)
