In medicolegal situationsitis typicaltodescribe theconsequences ofa stabbingincidentinrelative termsthatare qualitativeanddescriptivewithoutbeing numerically quantitative. Here, the mechanical variables involved in the possible range of knife–tissue penetration events are considered so as to determine the necessary parameters thatwould needto becontrolled in a measurement device. These include knifegeometry,in-planemechanical stressstateof skin, angle and speed of knife penetration, and underlying fascia such as muscle or cartilage. Four commonly available household knives with different geometries were used: the blade tips in all cases were single-edged, double-sided and without serrations. Appropriate synthetic materials were usedto simulate the response of skin, fat and cartilage, namely polyurethane, compliant foam and ballistic soap, respectively. The force and energy appliedby the blade of the knife and the out of plane displacement of the skin were all used successfully to identify the occurrence of skin penetration.

In this module sharpened along the hypotenuse edge. It has a strong, we will discuss how to safely arm, disarm, and pass a pointed tip, making it ideal for stab incisions and scalpel, as well as how to grip a scalpel and the methods precise, short cuts in shallow, recessed areas. It is used of cutting with a scalpel blade. We will also examine in various procedures, such as the creation of incisions the types of scalpel blades and handles that are for chest tubes and drains, opening major blood vessels commonly used in veterinary practice and their surgical for catheter insertion (cut-downs), removing the mop applications. ends of torn cruciate ligaments, and for meniscectomy.

  • Marquetry Using a Knife - Course Now Full
    Marquetry using a knife - Course now full The workshop on marquetry with a knife on Sunday 18st March 2018 is now full. However, another workshop can be arranged if there is sufficient interest among members of the Guild. Please register your name with Robin Cromer if you are interested in such a workshop (see below). A $40 fee will be charged to cover veneers and a contribution to the Guild. Five sheets of veneer (300 x 400 mm) will be provided (Birch, Kauri pine, American Cherry, American Walnut, and Blackwood), 0.6 square meters in total, making the workshop great value. The workshop will be organised by Robin Cromer with help from Don Rowland. Neither of us consider ourselves expert in this craft but we do have some experience and are willing to share what we know. Don Rowland wrote a good background article on the subject for a workshop in 2009. That article has now been posted on the Guild website under “Resources/ Presentations and articles”. If you plan to attend, please read Don’s article and try to follow up some of the references: (http://www.woodcraftguild.org.au/wp- content/uploads/2012/05/Marquetry-with-a-knife.pdf ) We will plan to complete a basic marquetry design using the ‘window’ method to final glue-up stage. We will also aim to cover veneering techniques such as book matching of veneers, creating borders and possibly parquetry designs. Numbers will be limited to 10-12 but if more members are interested, we will look at having another workshop soon after.

  • Using Veneering Tools
    Using veneer hand tools Veneer Tape Dispenser A gum tape dispenser that will take 3/4”wide gum tape is excellent for securing veneer seams together. A manual pull and tear machine which has a brush or sponge that will moisten tape (25 gram weight). It is indispensable for any shop that works with veneer. A sponge in a cup works well for moistening short lengths of tape for smaller projects. Veneer Gum Tape 25 to 30 gram (non-perforated) veneer tape that has water activated hide or vegetable glue is ideal for veneering. It is cut to length, moistened with a sponge or with the tape dispenser wetting system, placed over the veneer seam or joint, and smoothed or burnished down with a brush or rag to secure it firmly onto the veneer. It is used for final assembly of veneer joints in decorative veneering, in order to create a single skin or sheet of veneer. Ideally, after the gum tape is applied over the joints, the assembled veneer skin gets placed between two plattens to insure that the moisture from the gum tape does not warp the veneer until it dries. This complete skin will then be glued onto a foundation or core of smooth plywood or MDF, with the gum tape side exposed. After the veneer is glued to the core with a mechanical or vacuum type veneer press, the tape is removed by moistening and peeling it off with a sharpened flexible putty knife, or sanded off the veneer with a belt, stroke or random orbital sander.
