Troubleshooting
Sticks are difficult to cut cleanly.
Use sharp, strong scissors or a craft knife. For thicker cuts, score the wood first and then cut.
Paint or marker bleeds excessively.
Apply a primer or gesso to the wood surface before painting or drawing to seal it and create a smoother surface for color.
Glue is not holding securely.
Ensure surfaces are clean and dry. Use an appropriate adhesive for wood and allow sufficient drying time. For heavier structures, consider reinforcing joints with multiple glue applications or small brads.
Wood appears rough or splintered.
Gently sand the edges with fine-grit sandpaper. While the wood is generally smooth, occasional rough spots can occur.
