Invisible Glue Joints: Connect a Round Object in 90 Degrees (werkplaatsidc)

In this instructable we will show you how to make an invisible wood glue connection without using a lot of (difficult) materials. The connection we talk about is specially for small connections.

What do you need?

- a drill (same thickness of the round object)
- wood glue (we use pattex express)
- a round object (max 20 mm diameter)
- a plate
- sanding paper
- clamps

Step 1: Drill a Hole

Drill a hole in the plate (not trough the plate) so the round object just fit in the hole.

Step 2: Sand the Round Object

Sand the corner of the round object at one side so you get a blunt tip in the same angle as the drill you used.

Step 3: Add Glue

Make the pieces free of dust. Add glue in the hole and on the corner of the round object.

Step 4: Put Together

Put the round object in the hole and put a clamp on it.

Step 5: Finish

Now the round object is connected in the shelf.
