How to Build Professional Edge Stands
In this instructional video, I demonstrate how to build a simple yet extremely useful set of edge stands and explain why they are such an important tool for woodworking, finishing, and repair projects. Edge stands are ideal for securely holding doors, shelving, full-size passage doors, and many other wood components while sanding, edge taping, repairing, staining, or finishing.
One of the best parts of this project is that these stands can be built using scrap materials you may already have laying around your home or workshop. In this step-by-step tutorial, I walk you through the process of creating durable, practical edge stands designed to make your projects easier, safer, and more efficient.
These techniques are approachable for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike. However, if you feel a project may be beyond your comfort level, we always recommend consulting a qualified wood furniture or wood finishing specialist for assistance.
