1:26 This problem is exactly when I discovered that making a wood window frame by hand was harder than anticipated 😄. I didn't think it'd be easy, and I expected a few failures. But when my screw pushed apart my two pieces instead of joining them, I knew I was lacking far too much knowledge to continue. So here I am.
This video has already been helpful.
glad i could help
1) No matter how good you think you are, do not use a finished piece of furniture as your work bench. 2) To prevent splitting near the end use a countersink. If you don't have one you can carefully use a drill bit that's around he diameter of the head of the screw. 3) The simplest way to prevent separation, without all the extra drilling, is to use clamps. 4) It's not always necessary, depending upon the application, but consider using wood glue.
Those are all great tips. Thanks.
Thank you so much for showing me how to screw two bits of wood together. Up until now when I screwed two bits of wood together and they separated, I used to just belt the screw really hard with a hammer, in the hope that the two bits of wood would just go together, but, I was breaking lots of bits of wood that way. Your instructional videos are so helpful, thank you.
im glad i could help
This was so straightforward and easy to follow!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you I’m glad I could help
Really helpful. . .I routinely had problems with the pieces separating. Thanks!
No problem I'm glad I could help
1:12 This explains exactly the problem I encountered. I'll just get the right screws for the job. THANKS!
Glad u figured it out
Excellent instruction! Good video for the visual, great slow explanations, and a great variety of techniques to screw in different ways of putting words together. Thank you so much this has helped me a lot as I Venture into DIY woodworking
I’m glad I could help thanks
Excellent simplicity! Thanks!
thanks im glad i could help
Thank you! First place I was able to find the answer to a problem I was having!
Thanks so much. Im glad I could help. Keep up the good work girl.
this is perfect for what I needed to know, thanks!
no problem.
You explained this so simply for a guy that knows little too nothing about diy so thank you it was really helpfull
I’m glad it was helpfull for you
I'm building a small chicken coop for my baby chicks and it wasn't until I have to build the top that I realized I needed help with connecting the corners together. Thank you so much for all the help
No problem I’m glad I could help
Looks simple but its really educational specially for newbies..
Thanks glad i could help
Thank you, exactly what I was looking for.
glad i could help
Very helpful! Thank you!
Thanks I’m glad it helped
Very informative, thank you
Your welcome I’m glad I was able to help
I like the way you have your light on display, Brother! Greetings from Toronto.
Thanks and greetings from across the lake
thanks! I really appreciate it
Glad I could help!
Watching this because I was getting some separation occurring. Thanks for the tips. Although not all of them had the same result even though my process was the same.
well im glad i could help for the one thing
@@DavidsDiyReviews I’m going through 2x4 to 2x4. 3” screws. Not sure if it’s a clutch setting but I had the same effect with my impact. Pre-drilling helped, but some of them did the same thing where it came up with a gap even with pre-drilling. So I didn’t have a consistent result. Going to try clamping next time to see if that minimizes the lift.
@@WiLL02724 that should help.
Good video ! Thanks
Thanks glad I could help
really great video for a beginner, I'm especially thankful for that sideways screw trick. but could anyone tell me, if I'm screwing two 2x4s, how far away from the edge should i be and how close together can I put 2 screws?
I’m glad I could help
Definitely going to look into screwing....sounds like fun. 😂. Thanks for the video. Answered my question.
glad i could help
Thanks 😊
No problem
Thank god I found a video of a freemason showing us secrets behind screwing wood together.
dont tell anyone ....your now in the club
Thanks!
Thank you so much
Interesting and informative video. I would you say that a truss head screw is better than a flat head for a glueless hardwood butt joint, or would it not make a difference?
Ya it might be better.
Thanks 🙏🏻
No problem
Good tip! How to angle screw into wood!
No problem I’m glad I could help
Very helpful video as I'm doing a ton of small carpentry projects on our new homestead. Liked & subscribed.
QUESTION: I have to cross connect some 4ft long 2x4's into A frame structures with properly sized 2x4 cross-connectors that are end cut at the proper angles to mate flush at both ends. Since these A frames are structural load-bearing components on a lumber cart, the joints between the face grain of the 4ft 2x4's and the edge grain of the 2x4 connectors need to be as strong as possible. I know about pre-drilling & countersinking the 4ft 2x4 screw holes at the proper angle to get the screws into the center of the connector 2x4's, but what's the strongest way to get the ends of the screws into the edge grain of the 2x4 cross-connectors? (Some suggest pre-drilling into the edge grain while leaving just enough thread bite to achieve maximum withdrawal retention. And, of course, some wood glue at each joint should help as well. In the creator's video he just says he is using 2-1/2" wood screws, but he doesn't say what type of wood screw. Although, since he doesn't pre-drill the end-grain connector 2x4's, I would assume he is using self-tapping construction screws like Spax.)
NOTE: here is the lumber cart I'm currently building czcams.com/video/_0H71D7dSDQ/video.html
I would have to agree with that. Use regular wood screws that will be a length that ends about 1/4” from the other side of the piece or wood it’s screwing into. So 1/4” from goin all be way through. I would pre drill the first piece that you screwing through but not the second piece that you are screwing into/ I would also counter sink it and also use some wood glue. You could put one together without glue to see how you like it and then take it back apart and glue it. If I interpreted what you are doing correctly those techniques should work just fine.
@@DavidsDiyReviews Thanks for your feedback!
FYI: I ended up using CAMO 3-1/2" x #10 Premium Deck deck screws. I pre-drilled a perpendicular pilot hole thru the outer A frame support using a 11/64" twist drill bit. Then I dry fitted the cross support and drilled a pilot hole into its edge grain with a 9/64" twist drill bit. I used my cordless impact driver to carefully drive the deck screw in and allow it to self-countersink.
So far, no splitting and what appears to be good structural integrity. I'll report back once the cart is finished, loaded with lumber and moved around in the shop a few times. Hopefully it will hold together as needed.

Your opinion about regular drill or impact driver ?
If ur drilling a drill if you screwing an impact. If you can only have one then definitely a drill .
Went to drill some pieces together for a desk top and the screws weren't going all the way through. The thread went all the up the screw. Thanks for the tips!
I'm glad I could help
What sign is tattooed on your hand?
which is the best power drill for this kind of work that you are using?
hammer drill, impact drill?
Just a reg impact would work
Too good
Thank you.
Thank you.
Can you suggest screw length to connect 2 inch board to 1 inch? I feel like 1 3/4 might be ok just barely but next size the 2 inch might be too much? Suggestions? Thanks.
if you are screwing trough thee 1 inch board into the 2 inch then the 2 inch screw would work cause you will have 1 inch of the screw going into the 2 inch board.
@@DavidsDiyReviews will it matter if I have to go through 2 inch board first?
My screw got stuck 3/4 of the way into the the 2×4. Couldn't get it to go all in AND then after resting (ya, I was using all my strength), I couldn't get the screw out either. I'm either using the wrong drill or have the worst luck. I have 28 more screws to attach this project to the wall (studs) and I can't keep going like this. Any thoughts?? I'm this close to going & spending $400 on a dewalt driver system.
If the screw head is stripping then you need a better drill bit. If the drill just won’t turn it in then you need a better drill. You shouldn’t need to push much at all . The drill should do the work
I need to screw a piece of 1.5" thickness wood on a wooden wall for holding a metal air hose reel. I wonder how long do I need for this small project. Are 3 inch screws better than 2 1/2? I wonder if it is the deeper the better? And shall I use #10 or #8? Thanks!
honestly all of those are fine. if ur buying it go for the bigger size
@@DavidsDiyReviews Much appreciated!
David, you have become my honorary father for this information hahaha Information I feel like I would have appreciated my dad given me (I don’t even know if he would give good advice hahaha). But alas, I am here on CZcams learning for my D.I.Y. Projects hahaha this definitely helped! Thanks David! 😂
thanks so much im glad i could help
Great Video. Look to the East.
Thanks
It’s not just guys that enjoy woodworking. It’s us Women also so address us as well.
This video was years ago . I’m sry if I didn’t but I forgot what I said in it. Also if I said ok guys or something like show u guys I just mean everyone . It’s just how I talk.
How do you screw them together end to end
That’s kinda hard to do . You would have to pre drill one piece for the screw to go in on an angle
This video would’ve saved me a lot of frustration had I found it before. Had a couple of “ah ha” moments.
well I'm glad I could help
@@DavidsDiyReviews definitely. I just put into practice some of those techniques today.
I grew up with a uranium spoon. Didn't have to help fix anything. Well now I'm 40 and just bought a house and have no idea even how to connect 2 pieces of wood together without looking like a fool.
Well I hope I can help

just back the screw up after you get into the second board and drill it home and youll be fine.
Ya that usually works
its mr rogers
LMAO
Or...just glue stuff
Ya that is often an option
Woodglut plans are awesome!
Great but are you seriously doing this on a dining room table?
no its not on a dinning room table.
Thanks for the great advice as well as the response
Don’t know squat about screws but this I know for sure: if the wife caught me using the dining table as a workbench, I‘d be SCREWED…and royally.
It a desk
Not great advice, to be honest! I would always drill with a piece of scrap wood underneath to prevent tear-out, and always countersink. Oh, and I'd never work on the top of a piece of furniture - that's just an accident waiting to happen. See Rob Cosman, for example, who will show you how to do this properly in [literally] less than one minute, or the excellent Matt Estlea in just under four.
Those are all fair points . Thanks
This must be a joke right? People don't know how to drill two pieces of wood together? I guess some people are that stupid. BTW, loving that generic ink 😶
Don’t need to be a dick, not everyone grew up with a dad around the house or was taught to pre-drill a hole if needed
Oh dear. Such videos help with many basics, in a safe and informative manner. I highly suggest you go hug a kitten.
