Apply Edge Banding to Plywood Edges

uh we're just gonna edge band it all edge banding is it's a veneer made out of the same material as this with an adhesive on the back side of it and by using an iron we're gonna iron it on release that adhesive and then basically it's gonna be like one permanent sticker if you will now before we get to do that some of these edges they're gonna make it a little bit difficult for us to do so what i like to do is take a sander and start cleaning all this up making sure everything's nice and flush especially by joints like that you want it nice and clean and clutch so we're going to do that clean it up start edge banding and we'll go from there [Music] all right it's my understanding it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission when it comes to using the iron all right i'll go ask her hey babe i'm gonna use your iron i'm gonna use the iron i need to iron some wood uh you might as well keep it you've already ruined it can you build me send me an invoice [Music] all right folks if you've made it this far and you're looking you're like i don't think this is looking good there's still the magic moment here's the magic moment uh all this excess which is about an eighth inch on whatever side take a razor blade and start trimming it off be very careful not to cut the plywood off then once you get it to about where you can still feel it maybe a 16th grab a scrap grab a scrap piece of wood and uh 82 120 grit sandpaper wrap it around and what you're going to do is you're going to start working the edge of it bringing two of the surfaces flush with one another and so now this looks perfect let me show you this is what it was we trimmed it a little bit and then this is where we sanded it look how nice that is all right let's get cracking on the rest of this thing also i'd like to sincerely apologize for
