  • ARC 328W / 392W Wood Design Unique # 00780 / 01195 Spring
    ARC 328W / 392W Wood Design Instructor – Mark Maček Unique # 00780 / 01195 [email protected] Spring 2019 office hours TTh 2:30 - 5:30 pm by appointment Build Lab GOL 1.101 GOL 3.106 Objectives Practice woodworking skills: tool sharpening, layout, millwork, joinery, gluing, & sanding. Learn the characteristics of the material wood, including specific species. Analyze the strength of wood joints. Design a piece of furniture based on a program, with materials and techniques in mind. Understand the point of view of the maker within the design process. Complete the final project. Schedule The first six weeks, we practice solid wood joinery using hand tools and power tools. This is a crucial time to attend every day and stay current. There will be an assignment each week due on Tuesday morning. Students sharpen chisels and mill lumber so it’s flat and straight. Our discussions are grounded in wood’s cellular structure and anisotropy. Strength derives from long grain, weakness from the lack of long grain. Changing moisture content creates expansion and contraction in predictable ways. We will study furniture design history and visit the shops of Austin craftspeople to see how they work. The final project is one piece of furniture of your choice of program. It must be mostly solid wood, no digital fabrication, and no larger than 25 cubic feet. Final project design assignments include sketches, scaled drawings, models at 3”=1’-0”, and full-scale mock-ups. The class holds two design reviews before construction begins, allowing seven weeks for completion. The class participates in school-wide final reviews with other design studios.

  • Hand Saws Hand Saws Have Evolved to fill Many Niches and Cutting Styles
    Source: https://www.garagetooladvisor.com/hand-tools/different-types-of-saws-and-their-uses/ Hand Saws Hand saws have evolved to fill many niches and cutting styles. Some saws are general purpose tools, such as the traditional hand saw, while others were designed for specific applications, such as the keyhole saw. No tool collection is complete without at least one of each of these, while practical craftsmen may only purchase the tools which fit their individual usage patterns, such as framing or trim. Back Saw A back saw is a relatively short saw with a narrow blade that is reinforced along the upper edge, giving it the name. Back saws are commonly used with miter boxes and in other applications which require a consistently fine, straight cut. Back saws may also be called miter saws or tenon saws, depending on saw design, intended use, and region. Bow Saw Another type of crosscut saw, the bow saw is more at home outdoors than inside. It uses a relatively long blade with numerous crosscut teeth designed to remove material while pushing and pulling. Bow saws are used for trimming trees, pruning, and cutting logs, but may be used for other rough cuts as well. Coping Saw With a thin, narrow blade, the coping saw is ideal for trim work, scrolling, and any other cutting which requires precision and intricate cuts. Coping saws can be used to cut a wide variety of materials, and can be found in the toolkits of everyone from carpenters and plumbers to toy and furniture makers. Crosscut Saw Designed specifically for rough cutting wood, a crosscut saw has a comparatively thick blade, with large, beveled teeth.

  • February 2004 Fleam
    True Japanese Dovetail Saws 2 new rip-tooth dozuki saws are efficient dovetailers. utting dovetail pins and tails is primarily a ripping C operation. So it has always bewildered me that almost every Japanese saw sold for dovetailing had teeth designed for crosscut- ting or cutting plywood. A few specialty importers do sell Japanese backsaws with a rip- tooth configuration, but these are made mostly by hand and cost between $140 and $1,500. Why, I wonder, isn’t there a machine-made dozuki that sells for about $35 – the cost of a de- cent crosscutting dozuki? Well, I don’t have the answer yet, but the two new rip-tooth dozukis on the market are considerably less expensive (between $70 and $80). To check the quality, I com- pared them to a premium rip- tooth dozuki that I’m quite fa- miliar with – the Kaneharu rip- ping dozuki, sold by Hiraide America for $182 (see the Sources box for more information). Sure they look like standard dozukis, but these saws have rip teeth.We by Christopher Schwarz compare the Kaneharu (in use) with new saws from Harima-Daizo (left) Comments or questions? Contact Chris and Lee Valley (right). at 513-531-2690 ext. 1407 or Photo by Al Parrish Photo by [email protected]. 62 POPULAR WOODWORKING February 2004 Fleam The Kaneharu saw has graduated teeth. Near the handle (left) there are 15 teeth per The Lee Valley saw has 18 tpi and a The Harima-Daizo Deluxe saw has inch, while at the toe (right) there are 10 tpi.This combination of tpi makes the saw small fleam that it uses for crosscutting.

The head is forged (machine forged), and the handle is some nicely grained american hickory wood. The poll can be used as a hammer. The Small Forest Axe (SFA) is really targeted at nordic forests, so its head is very thin and concave after the bevel, excellent for limbing and cutting in soft green woods. It is very well balanced, and handling it is a pleasure. It comes with a sturdy leather head protection.

  • Paradoxical Territories of Traditional and Digital Crafts in Japanese Joinery
    Paradoxical Territories of Traditional and Digital Crafts in Japanese Joinery While one can argue that a certain traditional craft such as Japanese Joinery should remain adhered to its processes, materials and methods, others could see potential possibilities that might be explored through applying contemporary technological advancements such as digital fabrication and engineered timber. This can only leave us with more questions than answers; what are the advantages and the possibili- ties? Does technology offer a “one size fits all” solution to any building material, or are there profound limitations? Where do we draw the line between traditional and contemporary craftsmanship? INTRODUCTION AHMED K. ALI When Torashichi Sumiyoshi and Gengo Matsui wrote their 1989 book titled Wood Joints in Texas A&M University Classical Japanese Architecture, Computer Numerically Controlled technology (CNC) and digital fabrication methods as we know it today were still in its infancy. While Japanese join- ery has traditionally been reserved for solid heavy timber, the increased use of both CNC and engineered timber (CLT, Glulam, LVL,..etc) as a sustainable material and an alternative to concrete and steel gives rise to number of interesting questions. While one can argue that a certain traditional craft such as Japanese Joinery should remain adhered to its pro- cesses, materials and methods, others could see potential possibilities that might be explored through applying contemporary technological advancements such as digital fabrication and engineered

    Gardener's Saw Outdoors-Magazine.com http://outdoors-magazine.com Generic Gardener's Saw James - Gear reviews and tests - Edged tools - Saws - Publication: Saturday 13 July 2002 Description : A light, cheap, and very efficient saw. Copyright (c) Outdoors-Magazine.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non-Commercial-Share Alike License Copyright © Outdoors-Magazine.com Page 1/5 Gardener's Saw I often hear about big blades, hatchets, axes, but rarely about saws: By example, this is a 160 grams, 20cm (8"), 10 US$, carbon steel saw, with a blade lock, and rubbery handle cover, sold as garden saw. I cut a 4x2" pine wood in two in 30 to 60 seconds with it. I doubt one can do faster by whacking! (it is also the best wood-cutting saw I have ever owned, due to the fine, sharp and deep teeth) Here it is near my Soldier SAK Copyright © Outdoors-Magazine.com Page 2/5 Gardener's Saw Copyright © Outdoors-Magazine.com Page 3/5 Gardener's Saw I have used it on many occasions outdoors, camping, or when a big blade is not "politically correct", and I am quite happy about it. These saws are generally Japanese made, and show teeth that are designed to cut wood across the fibers (cross-cut teeth) and only on pulling. This way, the blade can be maintained very thin, as there is no chance to warp it or break it when pushing. Opinel does some similar saws, with the same cross-cut teeth, one based on a #12 handle, and one definitively longer.

  • Of 10 Straightening Bent Handsaw Blades
    Page 1 of 10 Straightening Bent Handsaw Blades The best Western and Japanese handsaws are quite thin yet in competent hands won’t kink in a cut, and the spring steel they are made from is tempered to allow sharpening with files. They are usually taper ground in two dimensions, so the blade’s cutting edge is thicker than the back, and both the back and the cutting edge taper from the saw’s heel to the saw’s toe. The thinner the cutting edge, the greater the taper, and the higher the polish, the higher the saw’s quality, as taper results in less set required for the teeth, aided by the steel’s polish that inhibits binding in the cut. All these features allow for a narrower kerf requiring less sawing effort. There are two fundamental choices in manufacturing a thin saw that won’t kink. The least expensive choice is to make the saw stiff by using hard steel and disposable blades, because such saws can’t be economically re-sharpened. The second choice is to temper the saw so that it can be filed, and to stiffen it by tensioning the blade using hammer and anvil. When a thin blade is struck on an anvil by a convex-faced round hammer, a dimple is created; often so small it can’t be seen by the eye. Steel from the area around the dimple is pulled inwards toward the point of impact, making the steel in the circular area radiating from the dimple stiffer, or “tensioned” on its surface.

  • Yestermorrow Design/Build School Woodworking Certificate Program
    Yestermorrow Design/Build School Woodworking Certificate Program Yestermorrow's 11-week Woodworking Certificate program is designed to give amateurs and aspiring professionals a solid grounding in woodworking and furniture- making techniques, led by Yestermorrow's talented and nationally recognized faculty. Skills learned in the program include design and drafting, wood selection and preparation, joinery, traditional hand skills, sharpening, power tool techniques, and finishing. The curriculum has a strong focus on the integration of design in the woodworking process, part of Yestermorrow's core philosophy of design/build. The Certificate begins with an analysis of trees and the wood they produce, an overview of felling and milling practices, and an introduction to the tactile essence of working with green wood. The program then moves into the realm of Cabinetry, in which students become oriented to the tools of the woodshop and basic principles of wood movement and layout. Additional program segments include Beginning Furnituremaking, Traditional Handtool Chairmaking, Joinery, Boxmaking, Care & Repair of Shop Machines, Small Scale Design/Build, Intermediate Furniture Techniques, and Wood Finishes. The program culminates in a two-week studio where each student will design and build a piece of his or her own choosing. The Certificate will be led by Program Director Justin Kramer – furniture designer, woodworker, sculptor, and educator. Other instructors include Steve Skonieczny, Randy Taplin, Andrew Russell, Kim Winkle, Joel Taplan, and other guests. This year’s program will be offered twice: January 31st through April 15th and September 4th through November 18th. Classes are generally scheduled 9am-5pm Monday through Friday, with some occasional weekend shop days and evening lectures/shop time.
