- Cheap and easy DIY: How to Fix Broken Particle Board Furniture
Hello everyone
In today's video I will fix a broken chipboard table. This is a DIY project done in the simplest and cheapest way.
Chipboard is a cheap but very fragile wood that is prone to breaking. You can also see in this video that this table was already repaired by a person unknown to me. I will do the second repair myself. I hope for a job well done and that it will serve its purpose for a long time.
This table belongs to my neighbor and it has been broken for a long time. He was about to throw it in the trash. I suggested to him that I try to do it and if he is not satisfied, then throw it away.
I think he will be satisfied with the work done and will keep it.
I hope you liked the video and enjoyed it.

There's a special place in my heart for people who repair things.
You did an outstanding job sir! Very well done. Perhaps for another video is to create a metal that slides the same distance from the bottom of the legs. You could add some metal strapping, even some rebar and tack it in place. Remove that support system and finish welding it, paint it, cold blue it and space it height wise and run some screws in. Just my 2¢ worth. If you prefer it as is, you’re gold. You have to be happy with it. Take care and Merry Christmas.🎄
Surely your way is much better in the sense that the repair would take much longer. But here I was looking more to return as much as possible to the original state. I didn't want to spoil the look in any way. If it fails again, then I will do something similar to what you suggested. Thank you for your advice and for watching. Greetings.
I'm less than a novice. What materials did you use for the repairs? Where can they be purchased? It would help greatly if you could put the list of these materials under your video description.
Hi FastFIX KS good to see you back, what a great repair i was really impressed with the parkside soldering iron and colour match well done on saving the table from the tip 👍👍
Thank you very much my friend for the kind words, I'm glad you like it. I did my best, I hope it will serve its purpose for a long time.
Süper work brother
Thanks bro, glad you like it
Nice fix, bad design. That table was designed with weak points at the table leg joints. Regardless your solution was well done and has taught me a few things.
I'm sure you're right, I haven't seen anything worse designed in a long time. Really bad solution with these points where the legs are joined.
Thank you for watching and commenting. I'm glad if my video could help you in any way.
What would you suggest for a cracked but not broken through particle board? The laminate on one side is cracked but the other side is not. It is a sewing cutting table wing.
Super je ❤❤
Hvala puno prijetelju moj, ziv i zdrav bio.
So Sir??? Was that wood glue mixed with Wood Dust? There were no details
Yes, you are right. It is wood glue mixed with wood dust. If there is a larger gap, in the form of a hole, then it is best to combine it that way, because the glue would leak out if you put it alone. And the second reason that is combined is that the glue acquires the color of wood dust and thus less holes are noticed.
Are you still active? Need help
Nice repair sir! You dont know how my pieces ive thrown out because of broken particle board like that. Good to see you making a video again. I was wondering when you were going to do one again, but your probably very busy as well. 👍🇺🇸
It is certain that many have thrown out complete chipboard furniture because of small breaks. Chipboard is cheap, but that's why it doesn't last long. I hope that this will help someone to be able to solve such things themselves, because I also finished this with the simplest tools and the cheapest possible.
Really, because of the additional work I do, I am not able to shoot as often as I did before.
Thank you very much for watching and commenting, I'm glad you're still with me.

Hi! Will you put links to what you bought or at least type in what you used? I did see the parquet repair kit. But what about the sanding block and type it was? Also you used a spray what was the spray? Thank you.
Hi.
First, let me thank you for your interest in my video and my work.
The easiest way to explain is to write here what I used.
At 3:40 I used wood glue, nothing expensive or fancy, just regular wood glue.
At 5:00 I used wood dust that I saved from previous projects. (The color of wood dust naturally depends on the color of the wood itself.
I used a darker color because it is similar to the color of this table). I mixed it with the same wood glue and got a homogeneous and thick mass, so that it can glue the parts and fill the gaps.
At 6:30, as I wrote in the video itself, it's a parquet and laminate repair kit. You understand that.
- Your question: But what about the sanding block and type it was? It is an integral part that comes in the repair kit. At 6:35, in the middle of the box, between the repair compound and the machine, there are two plastic plates. They are almost colorless so it is hard to see them there. These are plastics that are jagged, rough, so they can remove excess mass. Similar to a standard metal file, only plastic.
At 8:15, it's a clear lacquer spray, it's used as a final coat after applying any color and it gives a shine at the end, in this case it evens out the color with the rest of the table and covers small scratches.
I hope that I have explained everything and that it is now clearer to you. If you need anything else, just write.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Very nice video thank you so much.❤❤
