Each unit includes a rationale, general and specific objectives, and a brief description of the learning activities to be supervised by an instructor and provide learning practice. Each activity or task package is organized under the headings of: prerequisites, rationale, objectives, learning activity, and learning practice and is keyed to supplementary audiovisual and textual materials. Successful completion of the required activities is usually necessary in order to progress to the next unit.

This unit has been designed to provide you with the opportunity to become familiar with many different types of carpentry handtools whiel are frequently used in performing everyday carpentrytasks. The successful completion of the task packages in the unitwill enable you to perform more complex building tasks later in the course. Continue by reading the General Objective for the unit and the Epecific Objective for each task package. Your attention is then directed to the Learning Activia which will indicate to you what yo-1 are to do and how to proceed in the completionof this unit. OBJECTIVES: General: Upon completion of this unit you will be able to use carpentry hand tools with a degree of skill and confidence. pecific: Upon completion of the task packages for this unit youwill be able to: C-1 2 OBJECTIVES jcont'd): 1. Read and use correctly a folding wood rule, layout cape rule, and a combination square to measure stock to the nearest 1/16 inch for the folding wood rule and combination square, and to an accuracy of 1/8 inch using the layout tape. 2. Copy and transfer aczles, using a sliding T-bevel, by setting the angle on a framing square, protractor, or by trans- ferring the angle from a piece of stock to an accuracy of + 10.* 3. Read the linear scales of the framing square to an accuracy 1/16 inch and to check the squareness of inside and outside corners for a 90* angle. 4. Use a carpenter's level to check a vertical wall for plumbness and a flat surface for levelness.The acceptable tandar6 is reached when the bubble settles between the narked Hnen. Lse the crosscut saw to cut stock so that the cut is on the waste side of the line, is straight and clean, is square with the face of the toard, + 2° and the stock is not chipped or split at the end of the cut. 6. Use a keyhole saw to cut a rectangular opening in a piece of stock so that the cut is square with the face of the board, + 2°, is straight and clean, and is on the waste side of the line. 4 C -I 3 OBJECTIVES (coned): 7. Use the coping saw to cope a joint on a piece of molding with no more than a 1/32 inch space showing when the joint is assembled. 8. Use the miter box saw to make square and angular cuts on a piece of stock on the waste side of the line to an accuracy of + 9. Use the hacksaw for cutting metal molding to an accuracy of + 1/32 inch. 10. Adjust and use the block and jack planes to remove stock on the edge and end grain, leaving a uniform line showing, planing square with the face of the board to an accuracy of + 2°, and leaving no chips or cuts in the stock at the end of the cut. 11. Use the "carpenter's" hatchet for cutting and chopping stakes conformicy with a model stake provided by the instructor. 12. Ca-7e for ane use wood chisels on stock to remove material to a specified depth of + 1/32 inch, leaving an even guide line showing, and without splintering the stock. 13. Use the brace for boring holes with auger and expansive bits in stock so that the hole will be of the correct size and position, square to the surface + 2°, and without splinters on the back of the stock.

Think of the length of time that the pyramids have stood; their durability is largely due to the accuracy of the measuring tools as well as to the strength of the material from which they were made. Today, the steel tape, the folding wood rule, and combina- tion square are indispensable measuring devices that the carpenter uses regul;,Irly. St'l tapes are important tools which are frec:uently used by carpentErs in laying outbuilding lines on the job site. The folding wood rule is the basic measuring tool used by tbe carpenter, an;] he must know how to use this rule if he is to perform even the mo3t simple carpentry tasks on the job. The combination square na indispensable device for measuring short distances and for transferring a number of equal distances. In competing this task package, start by reading the Oblsctive and then do the Icainingl_Activitics and iE2ELIILLTILVc;!. C -I -1 2 RATIONALE (cont'd): The Objective sets forth your goal; therefore, as you perform the required task, keep this Objective clearly in mind. oBJECTIVE: Upon completion of this task package you will be able to read anJ use correctly a folding wood rule, layout tape rule, and a combination, square; and to measure stock to the nearest 1/16 inch for the folding wood rule and combination square, and to an accuracy of 1/8 inch using the layout tape. LEARNING ACTIVITY: 1. Begin your Learning Activities by going to the resource center i m.g slide sound package #C-I-1. 2. Peed -1H21LEK, pages 8 through 10. Take note of the appearanc and the name of the various measurii,!e Vices. Make a complete list of all of the measur;nz!, tools you find and retain this list. 3. Read Mcdcrn Carpentry, page 45, 1st column, which presents a discussion of the measuring tape. Observe ',1gure 3-6, Which pictured tape blade most nearly resembles the graduations on the 100 foot tape issued to LEARNING ACTIVITY(cont'd): Keep these answers, tobe you? A, B, C, or D? Why? turned in later.
