Immediately transfer the symbols to the fabric after cutting. It’s not fun to look for these symbols after removing the pattern. These guide help the sewer put together and sew the piece of garment easily 1. Straight grain The selvage is the finished edge of fabric. It usually has a different color or texture. Sometimes it has little holes. Every woven fabric is made crosswise and lengthwise threads. They are called the grain threads. When the fabric yarn do not cross at exact right angles, the cloth is off grain. But if the lengthwise and crosswise yarns cross each other at right angle , the fabric is grain-perfect. 2. Pleat This symbol marks the beginning and ending of a pleat. The arrow indicates which way to fold. In this example, you would pleat from left to right. 3. Notches These will help you match the pattern pieces. In sewing garment pieces, the front and back notches should be aligned. These are the V-shaped symbols or triangles along the cutting line. 4. Dots They are used to mark important parts of the patterns such as dart points or pocket placement . 5. Slash Lengthen or shorten. This is the part of the pattern where you can safely adjust the length. Avoid doing this before or after the pattern shape could change. 6. Cutting Lines These vary depending on the pattern company but they’re usually marked with dark line or dotted line. Page | 5 7. Buttonholes The mark is placed where the buttonhole is made. They are indicated by solid line having a short line at right angles to one end. 8. Buttons This is where to sew the buttons. 9. Stitching Lines Not all pattern pieces include stitching line. If they are included then there is a broken line, indicating the areas that will be stitched together. These are the guide so you can see where the line of stitching intersects and where you will not be stitching. It is not recommended that you mark every stitching line on to your garment. This would result to excess handling of your fabric. 10.Fold Line This line indicates that the edge of the pattern piece must be placed on a fold fabric. The edge of the pattern piece is usually indicated as a broken line, to remind you not to cut on that edge. If you cut this edge, there is no seam allowance and trying to join these will change the way the pattern fits, as well as how other pieces will join to this piece. 11. Centerfold This indicates that the edge of the pattern must be placed on the folded part of the fabric. This is when cutting two sides of the garment parts as left and right or back and front parts.

That’s all changed today as many manufacturers make a wide selection of tools to fill most of the pottery throwing needs for ceramic artists. However, for the potter with special needs or who wants a special tool, making your own tools is both creative and fun— plus you get tools that may not be available anywhere else. How to Make and Use Bamboo Tools by Mel Malinowski There’s a nostalgia for making handmade tools and bamboo is one of the best materials for making long-lasting durable pottery throwing tools. The material is easy to shape and readily available. How to Make Ergonomic Pottery Throwing Sticks by David Ogle Pottery throwing sticks are a potters best friend when it comes to throwing tall, narrow or closed forms. Held in the hand, these versatile tools can reach places no hand could touch. And if you can’t find ones to buy that work for you, David Ogle shows you the step-by-step process for making your own. How to Use a Throwing Stick by Ivor Lewis Pottery throwing sticks are hand-held tools that are a potter’s best friend when it comes to throwing tall, narrow or closed forms.

  • Engineering Drawing Questions and Answers – Drawing Tools and Their Uses – 1
    Engineering Drawing Questions and Answers – Drawing Tools and their Uses – 1 1. How many battens will be there for a Drawing board? a) 1 b) 2 c) 3 d) 4 Answer: b Explanation: Generally drawing board has dimensions of 1000 x 1500, 700 x 1000, 500 x 700, 350 mm x 500 mm, and made of well-seasoned soft wood, so there would be no bending while life increases. And also if size of drawing board increases widely then the board will be fabricated with another 1 or 2 batten. 2. The part that doesn’t belong to T-square is __________ a) Working edge b) Blade c) Stock d) Ebony Answer: d Explanation: Working edge and Stock are parts of T- square those which make 90 degrees with each other, the blade is the long bar that exists in T-Square. Ebony is part of Drawing board in which T-square is fitted to draw lines. 3. The angle which we can’t make using a single Set-square is ________ a) 45o b) 60o c) 30o d) 75o Answer: d Explanation: 45o can be drawn using 45o Set-square, and 30o, 60o can be drawn using 30o – 60o Set-square, but to draw 75o degrees we need both Set-squares. That is only if we keep 30o of set-square adjacent with 45o set-square we can get 75o. And also multiple angles can be achieved using protractor. 4. The angle which we can’t make using both the Set-squares is _____________ a) 15o b) 105o c) 165o d) 125o Answer: d Explanation: 15o can be made by keeping 45o and 30o adjacent to each other on the line perpendicular to the line for which 15ois made.

Applying Skill and Patience Chadwick′s love of furniture design comes from his cabinetmaker grandfather who taught him the importance of skill, precision, and patience in using the tools of the trade. How do these qualities contribute to good design? 62 Courtesy Herman Miller, Inc. Drafting Career Bill Stumpf and Don Chadwick, Product Designers ‶We designed the [Aeron] chair… as a metaphor of human form,″ says Bill Stumpf. He and Don Chadwick won the Design of the Decade (1990s) award for their ergonomic chair, which is in the Museum of Modern Art′s permanent collection. ‶The only way to be sure a chair is comfortable is to actu- ally sit in it…,″ Chadwick says. Stumpf and Chadwick needed to develop a new material for the Aeron because foam, traditional chair padding, can cause skin temperatures to increase by as much as 20%. They solved the problem by design- ing Pellicle, a lattice-like material that promotes air circulation and helps evenly distribute weight.

  • Story Stick – Creation and Use Thames Valley Woodturners Guild by Eric Deckert Jan 10, 2013
    Story Stick – Creation and Use Thames Valley Woodturners Guild By Eric Deckert Jan 10, 2013 Purpose: To understand how to create a story stick for duplication of turnings and how best to use a story stick. To create a story stick based on a re-scaled picture/drawing of a woodturning. Demonstration: Reproduction of a candlestick Tools: Some tools I used are listed below. Some of the items listed are optional depending on your preference. Vernier calipers Direct read calipers Square Normal calipers and ruler Flexible rulers French curves Molding templates Horizontal turning holder/jig Hardboard for story stick Method 1: Create a story stick from a turning Steps: 1) Select a piece of hardboard which is slightly longer than the piece to be reproduced. Use wood which is easy to write on and will maintain the registration marks without smudging. I used 1/8” hardboard and marked with a pencil. Once measurements are confirmed you can go over the pencil with pen or marker. 2) Set up the turning in a horizontal holder. Identify which end of the turning will be at the headstock. The headstock side will be where the zero of distance measurements are measured from. This is called the reference line. 3) Select a zero point on your turning for the reference line. It could be the base or the bottom of the first bead. It should be easily identifiable. 4) On your blank story stick, mark a horizontal line back from the edge which will serve as a line of symmetry for a drawing of your turning in profile.
