Hiding timber joints can be achieved through various methods depending on the project and desired aesthetic outcome. One common approach is using dowels or biscuits during assembly as they create strong joints while reducing visibility of connection points. These small wooden elements are inserted into pre-cut holes in corresponding positions on both pieces of timber before applying adhesive and joining them together. Another method involves incorporating decorative features like molding or trim around timber joints to divert attention from the connection itself. By adding these additional embellishments, focus is shifted towards the overall design rather than specific joint areas. Additionally, using wood filler or putty can help conceal small gaps around timber joints by filling them in and creating a seamless appearance when sanded and painted.
