    Just finished my son’s desk and I had him help throughout the process. I was happy to buy the plans from Anika’s website so I had the lumber/cut list in front of me when I needed it. One 2’X4’ sheet of plywood is enough to make both the desktop and chair seat.

    Great project. What wood did you use for the project. I tried with regular plywood but the wood just split everytime I put pocket holes. Did you use hdf or hard wood?

    • @Anikasdiylife
      @Anikasdiylife  3 роки тому +1

      In this project, just the top is plywood, all the rest is pine. However, you shouldn’t have any issues with pocket holes in plywood. I have built other furniture using plywood. Check the settings on the jig and drill bit while making pocket holes. I have a lot of information on pocket holes on my website if you are interested.

  • @IdahoEagle77
    @IdahoEagle77 Рік тому +2

    There is a major issue with the pocket holes here. They are not supposed to angle towards the edge of the wood. That makes them extremely unstable and likely to break through the wood. When lining up aprons towards the edge of legs like you are doing in this video, and drilling pocket holes that are angled towards that edge, the holding strength of the screws are significantly reduced. There are many great videos on this topic and I believe even Kreg addresses this issue quite thoroughly. Many people angle pocket holes the wrong way to try and hide the screws, but it’s very wrong.
