Put Glue Into Sawdust and You Will Be Amazed With Result! 

Have done this for decades. It's important to use the dust from the same species of wood to fill the hole. Also, using an electric sander will tend to heat up the glue making the fill darker and gum up the paper. Use the glue-dust fill sparingly and hand sand.

It's a very good idea, I use it a few time ago and find work even better with wood sealer, TKS for the video

This works well for painted projects, but it's not recommended for stained projects. The wood glue / sawdust mixture will not stain well at all. An option to use when staining a project. Use the same stain you're going to use with your project and mix it with the sawdust. Then, mix clear

Been doing this for years. My favorite trick is to use particle board for work bench table top. It is cheap and very smooth and flat. Good for project surface to work on. I drill parts right into the table. After a while, just mix up sawdust and glue and fill drill holes in my work surface and sand them smooth. Good as new since particle board actually is just sawdust glued together.

I've got jars with different colors of sawdust I've saved from sanding for this reason. Works way better than the store bought stuff. A+ tip right here.

Fantastic tip.Thank youuu!

Да да, этот способ я применял ещё в прошлом тысячелетии. Это было оооо очень давно! Только не опилки, а пыль от шлифовки.

If you sand wooden floorboards and decide to fill the expansion gaps with wood filler save money by mixing latex base adhesive with the sawdust from sanding the boards and use the "filler" leave a slight dip in filler to allow for expansion, I did a 20*12 foot Victorian dining room floor for a friend like that and it's still good 10 years later

I had this idea while watching a show with my son, looked on RU-vid and watched this video. Just tried it on a bowl I have been working on that has minor cracks. Worked perfect!! Plus it dries super fast for inpatient guys like me.

Saya sudah lama pakai tehnik ini,, Terimakasih sudah berbagi untuk yang belum tahu tehnik ini. 👍👍

thank you for the good idea, I also use metal grinder dust I collected for cement mixture.

This would work a lot better if the sawdust was from the wood you were working on

It’s why I save sawdust! Amazing filling material!

I use wood glue and saw dust for a long time now and it makes everything rock solid.

Tengo 50 años y desde niño mi padre lo usaba de esa manera en los trabajos de carpintería, sin duda es bueno.

Sometimes old stuff is new my father did this probably 50 years ago and taught me how to do it at least 40 years ago. Works quite well

_Excellent idea!_

the man doesn't fill 8 minutes of crap to monetize the video, just went to point, nice and clean, Man

¡Por fin alguien q muestra "mi" técnica para restaurar maderas! Yo soy un absoluto fan de esta técnica q permite reparar todas nuestras imperfecciones. Tengo frascos con serrín de diferentes tipo de maderas y con un colador o tamiz de cocina me hago serrín de granulometrías diferentes. Incluso guardo el polvillo q resulta después de lijar, lo q me permite la "terminación" de la reparación. Nunca è usado ni usaré mezclas epoxidas para reparar maderas: Las maderas se reparan con maderas, es mi eslógan. Incluso he reconstruido trozos de centímetros, con la técnica de la paciencia. Una capa, espero q seque bien y agrego otra capa, hasta llegar al lijado y disfrutar de lo realizado. Aunque sea difícil de creer esta técnica, al menos a mi, me ha permitido pasar estos dos últinos años, con todas sus medidas liberticidas, en un estado de casi plenitud; ¡de verdad! Saludos y felicitaciones al autor del video.

Muito bom tacada de mestre continui demostrando truques de mestre continui demostrando ajuda muito obrigado alegra o coração fica com Deus DEUS abençoe vocês paz profunda SOMOS vencedores Deus os abençoe vocês....São Paulo Brasil s c s SP .....

Паркет ещё в 18 веке так правили... неужели есть мужики, которые эти способы не знают...

Good job || thanks you for sharing

Thanks,I need to use this for a project.

Diese Tricks zeigte mir damals schon mein Berufschul Lehrer in unserer Tischlerei ! Guter Tip 👌👌👌

Buen día una pregunta, para aberturas, puertas agrietadas por estar al exterior, es una solución? O el agua, el sol le perjudica gracias por subir videos, saludos de Puerto Iguazú argentina

A very creative idea. 💛 I look forward to seeing your designs. Congratulations on your journey forward 💪🤝

Mix sawdust in with latex paint, when it dries it's as hard as a rock, but can be worked just like wood. Takes a while to dry though!

Красить начнёшь,все вылезет...пятнами)))

I LEARNED THIS IN WOOD SHOP 78 YEARS AGO. I ALWAYS KEEP DIFFERENT GRADES OF SAW DUST I SAVED FROM DIFFERENT PROJECTS.

Pokud je člověk mladý a nehraje si třeba s modely ... může to být pro něho novinka. Je mi šedesátpět a tohle jsem používal když jsem stavěl modely jako dítě. Je to fajn umět si poradit.

Mixing the saw dust and glue with the same color stain you're using works great.

شكراً جزيلاً

Aadding sawdust to glue can also help with color matching when staining. The sawdust absorbs the color, the glue does not.

As long as you can make it on the spot, epoxy or CA glue works better bc it wont blacken like regular paste glue and will match the piece better

Так учил меня ещё мой дедушка.

Really handy tip if normal wood filler is not available, providing you can buy wood glue. 👍

Não deve ser usada espátula de metal, mas de silicone ou de madeira para não escurecer a cola

I use it from 1993 , when I started wood working!!

Только что был вынужден применить подобную шпаклевку. Только не с ПВА, а с эпоксидкой. Делал каретку для циркулярки и когда свинчивал половинки, одну доску увело аж на три миллиметра (как? из-под струбцины?), край каретки стал с изломом, не прямой. А сажал все на клей. Увидел, когда уже все высохло. Переделывать... ну, нафиг. Наклеил на стол скотч (чтобы доска к столу не приклеилось), на ребро доски налепил смеси опилок с эпоксидкой и положил доску на скотч. Стол дал базовую плоскость. Лишнюю шпаклевку снял. Завтра высохнет, края обработаю от облоя и буду иметь прямой край каретки. Почему эпоксидка, а не клей? Сохнет быстрее. Клей в толще остается мягким несколько суток.

Always nice when people rediscover what generations before have been doing for 200 years/ possibly more. We have to pass information on to to the younger genertions. Paricularly these days where so many people can't do anything they haven't seen on the internet.

This method is as old as the hills my Dad thought me that when I was a little boy of 10 when I made some bad school woodworking projects to hide after my inaccurate joints and cutting but thanks for bringing back a 55 year old memory. 👍

If surface finish is hidden, it may help to use this type of process. For a stained finish it will pay dividends to use your tools and work processes more accurately. e.g. The half-housing joint was out of true and measurement by a country mile. The final appearance would not pass a customer's inspection. The knot was filled and sanded and was still left looking rough. The drilling of the the square length of wood showed that you drill bit was not square in the chuck (or the drill bit was bent). The technique for hidden screw holes is to use a chisel to raise a plug of wood which is larger than the hole. Drill the hole and place the screw then glue and clamp the plug of wood. Sanding the result will yield an invisible screw hole. You will drill much better holes if you use drill bits designed for wood rather than metal. These are known as Brad Point drill bits and can be used for soft and hardwoods.

Muy bueno el truco.gracias por compartirlo y animo con el canal👋👋👋Saludos

Just amazing!

Bravo 👍

Spade drillers works good in thick wood

O resultado é bom, mais há dificuldade em lixar já que a cola branca fica emborachada, como eu uso muito esse sistema tenho melhor resultado com araudite ou resina epóxi.

Very clever idea. 👍👽👏👏

Excellent 👍

Нашёл чем удивить,...

Охренеть , вот это да !!! Как такое только людям в голову приходит - смешивать опилки с клеем ? Шестьдесят лет живу и впервые вижу !!!

Para o reparo não ficar escuro,acrescente gotas de limão à cola e serragem

I've tried this with mixed results. Sometimes the glue-sawdust mixture is *much* darker than the workpiece ( sawdust of same wood)

Muy buen truco yo también lo hago para resanar madera, rellenar huecos, grietas y dar mejor acabado en lugares difícil de trabajar. Pero a parte le mezclo un poco de polvo de barro ultra fino para obtener mejores resultados al lijar la superficie.

I was taught about something similar maybe 50 years ago. When site built cabinets were built, finish nails were counter sunk or "set" and glue was put in the tiny depression. After it had begun to harden sanding briskly would make that place almost invisible.

*ExCELLENT*

Mixing sawdust w/ clear epoxy can match better w/ the same kind of wood (used in the sawdust) than a white glue. & much stronger...

In Thailand , we do this long time ago . It works

super idée !!

No hay mejor resanado en el mundo , los resanes comerciales se resquebrajan , con el tiempo, en cambio esto por ser más orgánico , no tiene sustituto ! Es muy buena orientación , para toda persona, que por sus múltiples ocupaciones , no tiene tiempo de reflexionar , y esta solución es mágica siempre! Saludos 🖖😃🇲🇽

A friend of mine alway told me that you can tell a good Woodworker, by his ability to correct and hide his mistakes. Your video illustrates a good technique, I'll use.

Отлично! 👍 👍 👍

Works great on filling nicks, cracks and scratches on gun stocks too.

да это просто кладезь) как ты смог до это додуматься, это же феноменально

In glue and dust we place our trust😁👍

Таку шпаклівку я використовую з 90-х,дуже міцна і надійна.

Para el tipo de pegamento ilustrado, es mejor no usar herramienta de hierro/acero porque oscurece la masilla, cambiando el color madera.

Essa técnica já é bem usada aqui na minha região... E só mais uma complementação, se usa a cola e um pouco de seladora com a mesma serragem da própria madeira, ao secar a tonalidade fica igual

Спасибо что выкладываете такие вещи,кому то это поможет.

The specialist who loves quality.

I usually use 2p10 thick and the dust from my sander bag that matches the wood I am using for larger holes/cracks or for small ones like in the knot I just use 2p10 thin and sand over it. It creates a closer match and not so much of a grey look.

A chippy showed me this method about thirty years ago and have used it ever since :)

Why is the dust grey? Shouldn't you use the sawdust from the same wood?

how strong is the filler? e.g. will a screw in tapped filler hold the same or more as wood, including if pulled directly out?

Всё отлично!!!

I used Durham's water putty... Woks well.

100 лет в обед

Good joiner...solid as rock

Adicione algumas gotas de limão 🍋🍋🍋na mistura, e não ficará escuro!!!

This just in, man discovers... *FIBREBOARD*

Я 14 лет назад делал такое. Опилка от шлифовки очень хорошо прилагаются

This has been a method used for decades, what is not shown here is by using the sawdust from the same wood type or piece you need to fill you avoid seeing a substantial colour difference between the work piece and the filler.

I've always called this "Wood Filler" Very common practice for older wood workers like myself before the advent of all the fancy stuff you can buy at the store. lol. Waste not, Want not.

Home made wood putty!

Il y a 60 ans QUE JE CONNAIS CELA ! = BRICOLEURS !

О, чудо из чудес 😸🙀!

Lo que viene siendo una masilla para madera de toda la vida.

Which bond is good to use. I tried with title bond III. But it blacks / darks too much in my red oak project

Ist ein uralter Tischler Trick, kenn ich von meinem Opa schon und ich bin heute auch bald ein solcher ;-) Bei ihm hieß das "Pfusch- oder Russen Fuge"... Wirklich!!!

素晴らしい

Uso essa técnica aqui em casa a um bom tempo !! 😅👍🏻

Good

A slight twist on this is using fine grained swarf to fill cracks on commercial aircraft ...... but mixed with a very advanced resin adhesive. The idea is the same.

Been doing this for years this trick has saved me a lot of grief. But make sure to use sawdust from the same color wood I save all my sawdust have different colors

Kitt und Leim macht alles fein.... ;-)

I've done that paste in the past. When it was time to sand it I regret it. THIS IS VERY HARD TO SAND.

Senas bajeris. Bet geras 👍. Senai naudoju

Oh! Hai inventato lo...stucco per legno! Geniale! 😱 😏

真棒啊！自由世界真的好!
