Balsa right angled triangular rod.

Balsa right angled triangular rod useful in any construction project, particularly to reinforce a right angle connection of panels.

• Rod length: 915mm long
• Rod width: 19mm
• Hypotenuse: 26.9mm
• Cut using a sharp knife or fine-toothed wood saw.
• To increase strength to finished wood apply a Sanding Sealer.
• Join short edges together of two pieces to create an off-set diamond / parallelogram section.

Use wood glue or PVA and leave untouched for a few hours for maximum strength and minimise movement of the joint.
