How to Handle Groove Edging108

As a leading manufacturer of edge banding in China, we are often asked about the best way to handle groove edging. Groove edging is a type of edge banding that is used to create a decorative or functional groove along the edge of a piece of furniture or other woodworking project. It is a popular choice for a variety of applications, including kitchen cabinets, vanities, and other furniture pieces.

There are two main types of groove edging: V-groove edging and U-groove edging. V-groove edging has a V-shaped groove, while U-groove edging has a U-shaped groove. Both types of groove edging can be used to create a variety of decorative effects, and they can also be used to create a functional groove for holding a shelf or other item.

When handling groove edging, it is important to take care to avoid damaging the groove. This can be done by using a sharp utility knife to cut the edging to the desired length and by using a rubber mallet to gently tap the edging into place. It is also important to use a backing board when cutting the edging to prevent the groove from being damaged.

Once the edging is in place, it can be secured with glue or nails. If you are using glue, it is important to apply it evenly to the back of the edging and to the edge of the workpiece. If you are using nails, it is important to use small nails and to drive them in at an angle to prevent the groove from being damaged.
