Using CA glue as a gap, crack & knot filler

As beginners & even advanced woodworkers, sometimes our mitres and other glue joints may not turn out like we expect and are less than perfect. This method can be used on small projects like boxes, but can also be used strategically for larger items too. My most recent video illustrates a different method to fill those gaps. Even I do not make perfect joints and this video was an effort to share how I fixed a common problem.

That thickness sander is a finger grinder, aint he ever heard of a push stick ?

All that sawdust being kicked up by that sander is not going to do his lungs any good either.
He needs to make a cover for it and add a spot to attach a vacuum cleaner/saw dust collector to it.

Thanks Greenie. This is me you are talking to. The guy who made the video. Please don't be a judgemental prick. Yes I know a drumsander will grind the skin off my fingers. This is not a tablesaw we are looking at. With regards to the dust collection, you are clearly not very observant, because my dust collection shroud is sitting near the sander, but when I am doing small parts, it is nearly impossible to have the shroud in place. I also removed it for video purposes so the viewer could see what the hell is happening.
Instead of trolling other peoples posts and telling them they are wrong, how about you start your own thread and do something productive.
Have a great day and make sure to subscribe to Makin' Sawdust and while you are at it you can watch my DUST COLLECTION VIDEO

I can’t resist adding what my friend, Norman, whose work was to be found in Harrodsburg, used to say, pardon me if you’ve seen it before:
“In glue and dust, we place our trust.
If the railway won’t employ us, the Council must!
