Space Balls (Bag of 100)

Q: Sorry, but I simply can't visualize how these balls are used or mounted.

Hello, when making cabinet doors or drawer fronts, you cut and rout your 2 stiles and your 2 rails. In each of the stiles and rails, you will have a rabitted groove into which you will be sliding the center panel of your doors or drawer fronts.Before you slide the center panel into this groove, you insert a number (2, or 3 or 4 or whatever is appropriate) of the space balls into this groove, and jam them in with a putty knife. Then when you insert your center panels, you will receive the following benefits. 1. Because you made your panels smaller than the allowable space in the groove, so that the panels will expand and contract with humidity, it will allow room for the panels to swell and shrink without anyone noticing. 2. Again, because you made the panels smaller, it will give you a nice tight fit, eliminating rattling. I hope this helps. I have used them in making drawer fronts and cabinet doors and am super pleased with how they work.

Q: Seems like it should be covered in the item description... What size are these? Seriously.

They are slightly less than 1/4" in diameter. They are soft and compress in the slot on the door frame and do a good of stabilizing the door panels.

Q: Would they also work in drawers to hold the bottoms in the grooves? I envision glueing one edge and using spaceballs on the other three sides grooves

I can see no reason that would work perfectly. I usually let the drawer bottoms float in the grooves, but the space balls would help keep the bottom tight and still allow it to expand/contract. You shouldn't have to glue any edge as that would restrict the wood movement.

Q: Would these be used for 1/4” mid panel?

They are used to let wood expand and contract with moisture and temperature so my guess would be yes
