Goal: Demonstrate an alternative method for precise glue application on small wood pieces.

What they say

Hide

when it came to building the shelves I used some of the scrap wood and I wanted to make sure they're not too loose and they're more of like a tight kind of fit so the dimensions that worked for me were 14 and 1/4 by 15 1/2 now the 14 and 1/4 is a little bit shy it's not as perfectly fit and the reason why was well you know how I told you that plywood has the exposed plywood kind of edges and you could you can use the edge bander and kind of iron that stuff on but I kind of wanted to work with what I got that would match the best so I just cut some of the trim off to be about4 in and then you know it's 3/4 in thick anyways and then I just glued it on and Ed some masking tape to hold it down and it worked so perfect and un sanded again took it through the ringer 120 grit 220 finish it off made sure the edges were flush and then it sat perfectly and the shelves actually look like they were born there because they're made out of the same material
