Step 2: Assemble snowﬂake

Items needed for assembly

• 3 – Crosspieces

(#1 in Fig. 1)

• 6 – 2-piece wingtip

assemblies (#2 in Fig. 1)

• 1 – Pre-cut dowel (Fig. 3)

• 1 – Wood glue

• Place each of the (3) crosspiece/wingtip assemblies so that they're

all lying the same way, either facing up or facing down.

• Apply a small amount of wood glue to the pre-cut dowel (Fig. 3).

Coat dowel evenly using either your ﬁnger or a small brush.

NOTE: Do not over-apply glue. This will push excess glue onto

the faces of the crosspieces and cause any optional ﬁnishes to

coat unevenly, detracting from the overall appearance of your

completed project.

• One by one, slide the crosspieces' pre-drilled dowel holes over the

glue-covered dowel (Fig. 4). If needed, use a small rubber mallet

to tamp them down into place.

• Moving quickly, set the crosspieces at the desired angles,

adjusting as needed until even spacing and alignment is

achieved.

• Clamp if desired and allow glue to dry completely before adding

any custom ﬁnish(es).

Note: Finish your Giant Reclaimed Pallet Board Snowﬂake with

paint, stain, glitter, stencils, etc., or leave unﬁnished and enjoy its

natural, rustic ﬁnish. Match any décor, indoors or out, any way

you like. For outdoor use, protect your project with a water-

proof/weather-proof sealant.

• As noted above under Items needed, ﬁnish (or not) as you wish.

• Purchase the mounting hardware of your choice, including, if

necessary, the appropriate wall anchors for the wall material on

which you wish to display your snowﬂake. Hang and enjoy.

• Drop cloth or covered

work surface

• Rag for glue clean-up

• OPTIONAL – Rubber

mallet

• OPTIONAL – Clamps

Step 1: Assemble wingtip/crosspieces

Step 3: Finish & mount

• For your protection, wear safety glasses and gloves when

working with wood.

• Divide the (12) wingtip pieces (#2 in Fig. 1) into (6) pairs.

Place (1) pair at each end of each crosspiece.

Abutt the angled ends of each pair as indicated by the

red arrows in Fig. 2.

Use the red circle in Fig. 2 to help position the wingtips

at the end of each crosspiece.

NOTE: Placing the wingtips exactly as shown in Fig. 2

will result in slightly larger gaps between each crosspiece/

wingtip assembly, as shown in Fig. 5.

If less gapping (or no gapping) is desired, simply place

the wingtips an inch lower on the crosspiece (toward

the center), as shown in Fig. 6.

• Once comfortable with the position of the wingtips, evenly apply

wood glue to both wingtip pieces, reposition at each end of

each crosspieces, and apply even pressure until glue is

completely dry. Use clamps if desired.
