Assembling the Sides of a Kids Art Easel

Video Transcript

"in this video clip we'll be assembling our sides we're going to start by laying out our first side and we want the bad side up so if there's any marks on the wood or any imperfections you want that to be facing up, because when we put our back piece on it'll cover it up. First we're going to go ahead and put some glue on our legs and do that for the entire length of that leg, spread it around a little bit just so our back piece adheres a little better. Once you have that glue on go ahead and slide your back piece on top of it, now you want this edge to be flushed for our leg and our back piece you want it to flushed along the side. Next we're going to take our pin nailer and put a couple of pin nails in and do that a couple of points down the line. This is just going to help hold that together while the glue dries next I'm going to glue my other side as well just like I did the first one, go ahead and slide my pieces together making sure that it flush on the top and the side and then go ahead and put a couple of pin nails in. Next I've actually flipped over my project and I'm going ahead and put some glue down, next we'll slip those boards in place and then I'm going to flip it around again, and make sure that this board gets flushed with the bottom before I put a couple of pin nails in. I'm going to do the same procedure for my top piece make sure that piece is flushed and then put a couple of pin nails in, after covering the holes with wood putty and sanding those our 2 sides are finished."
