I completed my first project and am not happy. I have construced a box using walnut. The corner joints are Box Joints made with Jointech Router workstatsion. The joints are well done, but I failed to propely clamp them at glue-up leaving a gap in one joint. I will fill the gap.

I plan to use cauls in future clamping sessions.

I also did not do an adequate job of removing the glue squeeze out. After applying Tung Oil the glue stain is very noticeable.

Can I re-sand JUST the area where the glue stain shows and then apply a new coat of Tung Oil? The finish really looks good elsewhwere.

How do you clean up the glue squeeze out?

This site is a wonderful resource and I appreciate your time to help a newbie.
