Trim router or hand saw
Sandpaper or a sanding block
li>Tack cloth or a clean rag

Step 2: Prepare the Surface

Before applying the edging strips, it's important to prepare the surface of the workpiece. This involves cleaning the surface to remove any dust or debris and sanding it to create a smooth and even surface. Once the surface is clean and smooth, you're ready to apply the glue.

Step 3: Apply the Wood Glue

Apply a thin layer of wood glue to the edge of the workpiece where the edging strip will be placed. Use a brush or a glue applicator to ensure an even distribution of glue. Make sure to remove any excess glue that may squeeze out from between the edging strip and the workpiece.

Step 4: Position the Edging Strip

Carefully position the edging strip over the glue and press it firmly into place. Use clamps or a nail gun to hold the edging strip in place while the glue dries. If you choose to use clamps, make sure to place them evenly along the entire length of the edging strip.

Step 5: Trim Excess Edging

Once the glue has dried, you can trim any excess edging strip that extends beyond the edge of the workpiece. Use a trim router or a hand saw to cut the edging strip flush with the surface of the workpiece.

Step 6: Sand and Finish

Finally, sand the edging strip and the surrounding area to create a smooth and seamless finish. Use a fine-grit sandpaper or a sanding block to gently sand away any imperfections or rough edges. Once the edging strip is sanded, you can apply a finish of your choice, such as paint, stain, or varnish.
