Action of Glue in a Wood Joint This greatly enlarged section through a gluedjoint of plywood illustrates a fact, not generally un-derstood, that the glue uniting two wood surfacesdoes not lie in a smooth sheet but enters the cellcavities through the open ends on the cut surfaceand clinches the joint by means of millions of tinybarbs and anchors. The arrow indicates the point. How glue penetrates into wood pores at which the glue entered the pore to the left of theglue line. The glue-filled pores near the glue lineon the right all open on the cut surface at some pointand were filltd in the same manner, as little or nopenetration takes place through the cell walls. \ iaScosity and pressure must be adjusted to suit the char-acter and number of cells and pores in differentkinds of woods to obtain the strongest joint.
