Quick MDF Kerfing Tutorial
Sharing buttons:
hey everybody so this is a quick video
on how to do kerfing really quick so I
got this long board here that we're
working on and basically what kerfing
you do is you take the saw blade and you
don't cut all the way through and this
allows so that you can actually bend the
wood so yeah and so basically if you
want to do 180 degree Bend then you do
24 lines if you want to do a 90 degree
Bend then you do 12 lines so what I did
here this is actually fifteen point five
inches so I just did 15 point 5 divided
by 11 to account for the two outer lines
I gave me about 1.4 and so if you come
in here you can't see that well but ever
right about 1.4 there you go so then I
just did each one going across about 1.4
and that will give me twelve lines and
after that I'll just you know make my
lines like that and then go over to the
table saw and cut all the lines and so
what you get is like this board I have
finish right here once you do all the
cuts OH
this is for my tea line in building you
can see here Chris document homeless
like yeah so
you can see here that it will actually
Bend the full 90 degrees which is
exactly what we want it to do
so other than that it should be pretty
simple hopefully you guys can learn how
to do you know do some kerfing and
you're in your guyses box designs
because i don't know i think it's a
really cool technique and a lot of fun
though these boards are really easy to
break if you bend them the wrong way I
don't really want to break this one this
is actually the test one I did for
seeing the thickness or how deep to do
the cut that's always good but yeah so
do kerfing and then when you put it in
your box you just gotta
with wood blue and then I put it in
place and let it dry and then I'll do
fiberglass over that and then sand it
down and the new bondo and sand that
down and then you should have a really
strong curved piece of wood look at that
so yeah try kerfing it's a lot of fun
see you next time
