I am a little confused. My dad was taught (and he taught me) that you cannot glue wood that has already been glued becuse the new glue cannot penetrate the wood properly. Can you explain why that is true or false?
There are a couple things worth examining. Your dad is technically correct. Just like when you weld two pieces of metal together and put it under stress it will never break at the weld, but breaks at another spot because the weld is stronger than the surrounding areas. "Modern" glue acts the same way and joins the wood so strong that the wood fibers break before the glue joint. The older chairs like the one in the video used a different glue, it didn't penetrate the fibers but acted as substrate joining two together. In that sense your dad is correct. Modern glue is water based and soaks and causes the wood to even swell. After the glue "cures" (different than drying) it's super strong. This is the way it's been explained to me. Thanks for watching. (extra explaining because my wife thinks I talk too much) when gluing boards together, if you apply too much clamp pressure you can actually squeeze out (starve) the joint and ruin the connection. This has happened to me on cutting boards.
Don’t waste your money! I bought one worked great for a bit. Had it replaced by Ryobi representative ….. same story. Both now sit in my garage collecting dust.
Have some chairs I'm going to repair for splits as well. My problem is cleats won't work, as the bottom isn't straight. The only thing I can think of is adding a wire tensioner to keep it pulled together.
I like these hoses too. I quit buying them. The first repair works and so does the second, third and fourth etc. A year from now this hose will be four feet long
These blow the product directly where you want it. The blowing moves leaves and allows the chemicals to get under the leaves where mosquitos live during the day. A fogger heats the product up and causes a smoke. The smoke rolls around the plants with no agitation. For me the heated foggers are dangerous health wise.
Great review! How was the results? Any mosquito problems after fogging? How does the Cutter solution compare to the Black Flag’s counterpart? They’re almost the same price.
It would be difficult with a hacksaw. There are some similar "dremel" type tools at Harbour Freight that work great. Be careful when using a dremel or hacksaw.
Thanks! I have two vintage wood chairs I've been waiting to repair for years because I didn't know how to get glue in the cracks. Now I have three options
Hey, my mother has a set of those chairs. She lost one, due to breakage, and she's trying to find a replacement. Would you know who makes that chair, or its model name? Her chairs are that same exact design. Thanks.
@@crimsonwoodworking9609 sir, would you by any chance be willing to share the cut list and dimensions for this project with me? My wife wants me to make her a coffee bar.
How does that shopvac work with the table saw? I've read that they're not as effective as an actual dust collector but seems to be working well enough for you.
It works great for the chips a table saw generates. Removing the fine dust is tough without a true dust collector. If you have a small shop, use this method and a dust mask. Makes clean up a breeze. The shopvac I use was bought at a yard sale for 5 bucks because the wheels were missing. Give it a try.
Glad i stopped what i was doing and decided to look up videos. I was starting to try to tear the entire chair apart thinking how else am i gonna get glue into that tiny crack. Always a smarter way of doing things.
Add a little WD-40 or some Pam Spray on the metal protrusion and the rubber tubing will go in a lot easier. Thanx for the video, showing us how to repair the hose.
Wish I knew how to do this sort of stuff! Instead, I am at the mercy of HD. Just trying to find out what size shop vac I need for a small shop to attach to tools like a chop saw or table saw?
How do you remove the excess glue? Was there something on your cloth? What stops the glue from smearing all over the wood of the chair. Anytime I’ve wiped glue off it leaves a film. Also, couldn’t understand what the name of the glue was that you used. Is it wood glue? Is it clear drying? Thanks
Just a wet cloth. Glue is water based and if you don't wait too long you can just wipe it clean. You're correct that it will leave a haze if you wait too long. Hope this helps
