A good wood glue method

Wood glue and method of application becomes the most important part in the work of wood, especially wood for furniture.
As the main technical choices and methods of connection, wood glue is very large role in determining the strength of wood construction. This article will only discuss the type of wood glue PVAc (Polyvinyl Acetate) or better known as white glue, because it's white.

To see how strong the glue that you use on wood furniture, let's look at some practical methods.
1. Cross Grain - The illustration below is gluing two sticks of wood without any construction. Once the glue is completely dry, put pressure on the shaft of the cross with the pressure gradually in several different thrust forces.From each of these steps, observe pergerekan connections and last condition of wood at the time the connection is open because of the pressure. By using the same type of glue from a different brand, you will find a particular brand has a different resistance.

2. Unidirectional Fiber - From a bar of wood beams, cut into pieces with angles of approximately 15-20 degrees. And reconnect the two pieces of wood using white glue. Proper connection to the former sawmill.Once the glue is completely dry, tie pieces of wood so it does not move and do the pressure on the other hand gradually until the two are separate logs as pemotongannya lines (or sometimes come open wood fiber).


3. Immersion - This method is more suitable for testing the glue on outdoor furniture (garden furniture). Two wooden sticks coated with a size equal to one (exactly the laminating process) and wait until completely dry.Then the laminated wood is soaked in water until the pervasiveness of water will affect the connection. A good quality glue will usually last longer.
Of course there are some other methods are more accurate and that you can actually use. In practical terms, of the three methods above will be immediately known type of glue which one is better and in accordance with needs.
To produce a fair and clear reset, there are some specific tips to note:1. Use the same type of wood with hardness (density) that is not much different.2. Normal wood glue should be allowed to dry 24 hours after grafting, but there are several brands and types of certain white glue that has a 'drying time' is different. Should follow the instructions carefully.3. Timber size for testing must also be equal in order to have a relatively equal pressure.4. Do basting glue application in the same way in all the tested timber.5. The distance to the center point pressure point must be the same connection, so that also received the same moment.
