DIY TIP: A small build up of excess glue is a good thing

Are you looking forward to the next time you can get back to your DIY project? Hopefully it’s not a long wait! In the meantime, here’s a tip for all the DIY audio enthusiasts out there:

A small build up of excess glue is a good thing!

If your cabinet building process requires gluing MDF panels together, avoid the temptation to be too tidy when wiping excess glue from the inside of your cabinets. A small build up or fillet on the joins will ensure everything is airtight and will create a stronger join. Make sure you use a high quality adhesive like Titebond to minimise the risk of panels moving over time.
