Very handy to have for repairs of wood furniture

Would Recommend

These mending braces were the perfect thing for repairing split cabinet door. The included screws were garbage - as is typical for screws included with most things I buy - so I bought some SPAX screws to use with these and they worked great. These braces are inexpensive, and I usually keep a few around for repairs when needed.

DIY Project

Would Recommend

Didn't use these braces this time, but hopefully in photo you can see how I might have used them. They would have and will be painted; they accept paint very well. I've used just about all of their cousins in every project I do. I know there is a tool out there that could bend them however, they will NOT be bent without a serious effort and the right tool. Immensely strong and sturdy!
