  • Woodwork Hand-Tools
    Woodwork hand-tools JSS 1 (2nd Term – Week 2) Woodwork hand-tools BORING TOOLS – In machining, boring is the process of enlarging a hole that has already been drilled (or cast), by means of a single-point cutting tool (or of a boring head containing several such tools). Boring is used to achieve greater accuracy of the diameter of a hole, and can be used to cut a tapered hole. Boring can be viewed as the internal-diameter counterpart to turning, which cuts external diameters. Boring tools are used to make holes in wooden materials. The wooden material is held firm with braces before the boring is done. Some examples of boring tools are wood brace, ratchet brace, bradawl, etc; some of the boring tools are discussed below. (I.) The Ratchet Brace: The Ratchet brace has four (4) parts which are: • The Head: The head is made of hardwood and shaped to fit the hand of the user. It is screwed to a steel sleeve. It fits over the crank rod and runs on the hardened steel balls. • The Crank: This is a rectangular bent metal rod. It fits into the hardwood or plastic handle. • The Chuck: The end of the crank is enlarged, threaded and slotted to receive the socket and jaws respectively. • The Ratchet: A ratchet is a tool fitted to the ratchet brace so that holes can be drilled (bored) at specific parts that are not really exposed, such as corners where it is impossible to make complete turn. CUTTING TOOLS – In the context of machining, a cutting tool or cutter is any tool that is used to remove material from the workpiece by means of shear deformation.

  • Build a Sawhorse
    Youth Explore Trades Skills Carpenter Build a Sawhorse Description Carpenters need to be able to accurately interpret drawings in order to extract information. Measuring correctly, cutting accurately, and using fasteners appropriately are necessary skills that every carpenter must develop. In this Activity Plan, students will have the opportunity to develop these skills by constructing sawhorses in small groups. Sawhorses are indispensable on a construction site and can prove to be constantly useful around the home. Their versatility is shown by their ability to function as workbenches, stepladders, vises, scaffolding, storage racks, seating, and platform and table supports. Lesson Outcomes The student will be able to: • Extract information from a drawing • Proficiently perform basic measuring and layout • Cut materials in an accurate and safe manner using appropriate tools • Join materials together using appropriate fasteners • Build a sawhorse that can be used in other activities within the course Assumptions The student will: • Have an understanding of measurement systems used in carpentry and the use of tape measures, squares, and basic layout techniques. • Have had an introduction to the safe use of basic hand tools and portable power tools, including portable circular saws, mitre saws, and hammers. • Be aware of common fastening devices, including common and finishing nails, wood screws, and wood glue. Terminology Gusset (cleat): a strip of wood used to strengthen or support the surface to which it is attached. Sawhorse: a beam with four legs used to support a board or plank for sawing. Commonly used to support lumber, or as a work surface. Sliding T bevel: an adjustable gauge for setting and transferring angles.
