How to Edge Band with Grooved Edging110


Grooved edging, also known as slotted edging or T-molding, is a type of furniture edging that features a groove or slot along its length. This groove allows the edging to be easily attached to the edge of a panel or workpiece using a variety of methods, including nails, screws, or adhesives. Grooved edging is a popular choice for a variety of applications, including furniture, cabinets, and countertops, as it provides a clean, finished look and helps to protect the edges of the panel from damage.

To edge band with grooved edging, you will need the following tools and materials:* Grooved edging
* Panel or workpiece
* Nails, screws, or adhesive
* Hammer, screwdriver, or glue gun
* Measuring tape
* Pencil
* Miter saw or coping saw

Once you have gathered your tools and materials, you can begin the process of edge banding. Here are the steps involved:1. Measure and cut the grooved edging. Measure the length of the edge that you need to edge band and cut the grooved edging to the appropriate length.
2. Apply adhesive to the edge of the panel or workpiece. If you are using adhesive to attach the grooved edging, apply a thin layer of adhesive to the edge of the panel or workpiece.
3. Align the grooved edging with the edge of the panel or workpiece. Align the grooved edging with the edge of the panel or workpiece, making sure that the groove is facing out.
4. Attach the grooved edging. Attach the grooved edging to the panel or workpiece using nails, screws, or adhesive. If you are using nails or screws, drive them through the groove and into the panel or workpiece. If you are using adhesive, press the grooved edging firmly into place.
5. Trim the excess grooved edging. Once the grooved edging is attached, trim any excess edging that is hanging over the edge of the panel or workpiece. You can use a miter saw or coping saw to make precise cuts.

By following these steps, you can easily edge band with grooved edging. Grooved edging is a versatile and affordable way to add a clean, finished look to your furniture, cabinets, and countertops.
