  • Redesigning Agricultural Hand Tools in Western Kenya WYCHE, OLSON, KARANU
    Redesigning Agricultural Hand Tools in Western Kenya WYCHE, OLSON, KARANU Research Article Redesigning Agricultural Hand Tools in Western Kenya: Considering Human-Centered Design in ICTD Susan Wyche Jennifer Olson Michigan State University, USA Mary Karanu Rural Outreach Africa, Kenya Abstract Human-centered design (HCD) is a creative approach to technology design that prioritizes users’ needs in the design process. It is characterized by three phases: understanding, ideation, and evaluation. Enthusiasm for using HCD per- sists among ICTD (information and communication technologies for development) researchers; funding agencies continue to support efforts to use the approach in development projects. However, published studies documenting each phase of the approach are few. Here, we present one such case study that documents our use of HCD to under- stand farmers’ hand tools in Kenya and to explore their ideas for new tools—designed to make weeding easier. We also present an evaluation of three redesigned tools, which were manufactured by jua kali (local metal workers). Our ªndings suggest that HCD resulted in improved tools. These ªndings motivate a discussion that elaborates on using HCD in ICTD. We suggest that the most signiªcant impacts of HCD may come from using the approach to under- stand diverse local conditions as they relate to design, and from jua kali integrating the approach into their design practices. Finally, we consider how HCD supports (and challenges) conducting ethical research. Keywords: agriculture, design thinking, human-centered design, HCI4D, jua kali, Kenya Introduction Over the last 15 years, there has been signiªcant enthusiasm among researchers, practitioners, and funding agencies for using a Human-Centered Design (HCD) approach to guide the development of technological solu- tions for socioeconomic problems in the developing world (Bazzano, Martin, Hicks, Faughnan, & Murphy, 2017; Gordon, Kramer, Moore, Yeung, & Agogino, 2017).

  • Safe Use of Hand Tools Guide
    Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust Safe Use of Hand Tools Most of the practical conservation work carried out on Wildlife Trust nature reserves particularly that done by volunteers, is carried out with the use of hand tools. It is imperative that only GWT hand tools are used whilst volunteering; do not bring alone a tool from home. This is a guide on how to use the most frequently used tools safely, both for your own health and those around you, as all tool use has some level of risk, both to the person using the tool and to others in the party or members of the public. It is essential that all people involved in practical conservation work are shown how to use, carry and store these tools correctly before starting work. This not only makes the job easier to carry out, but also encourages safe working practices. If the guidance and recommendations given in this booklet are observed, the risks involved should be minimised. Bow saws: used for tree-felling, coppicing and scrub clearance. Use with one hand holding the saw and one holding steady the wood you are cutting. Keep this hand well clear of the blade as it could easily jump out of the cut. When carrying the saw, hold it down by your side with the blade facing down. Always place the saw on the ground when not in use. Never hang it from a tree or fence post. Choose the size of saw according to the size of timber you wish to cut. Never cut down a tree which is too big for the saw to handle.

  • SED Billhook.Pdf
    The billhook in English Dialect Between 1948 and 1961 the historic Survey of English Dialect (SED)* was carried out. At this time regional dialects were still common, and largely un-influenced by radio and television. From 1950 to 1961 over 400,000 items were collected by fieldworkers in over 300 locations across the length and breadth of England. In 1994 a Dictionary and Grammar of over 17,000 words was compiled by Clive Upton, J.D.A Widdowson and David Parry and published by Routledge. The re-issue of this scholarly work in paperback form in 2014 has given the general public access to a tome that was seldom found outside university libraries. From this reprint I have been able to abstract a wealth of information on the regional and dialect words used for billhooks and other tools. During this post-war period the billhook was still a common item in many households, and was still being used on many farms and in woodlands. In a time of austerity, before the era of consumerism, tools of this type were rarely thrown away or discarded, even when no longer used. In many homes they had become relegated to the role of kindling wood chopper, very few houses having central heating, and most having an open fireplace burning coal or logs. In the 19th century the term bill was more commonly used than billhook – by adding an adjective the two main types were thus described: Hand bill – a short handled bill, i.e. a billhook Hedging bill – a long handled bill, i.e.

  • Looking After Your Tools Spade, Fork, Rake, Hoes, Trowel, Dibber, Garden
    Looking after your tools Spade, fork, rake, hoes, trowel, dibber, garden line secateurs, hosepipe and watering can, shears and slasher: What could be simpler? Clean, dry or lightly oiled, sharp, properly kept, the right ones for the job, your tools are your best laboursaving friends! Dibbers make ideal holes for your planting out, and pushed beside the plant then fill the hole and firm it in nicely. Storage Gloves can be hung up to dry with pegs on a short clothes line, boots put upside down on two short stakes or hung through a horizontal ladder. Bow- saws should be hung vertically (release the tension). Spades and forks can be hung vertically from a rack (made from an old pallet) so that they dry; sledge hammers, axes, slashers, bill hooks, pitchforks and hoes (perhaps handle downwards) can join them, or hang on the wall. Lightly oil them and protect the blades. Small tools like hammers, pliers, secateurs, trowels, hand forks, scoops, onion hoes, weed augurs etc. are best oiled and hung up - perhaps in open spring-clips screwed to a batten. It is a matter of space and opportunity. Ropes should be coiled - put a half twist in each hawser loop in the same direction as you are coiling it to prevent kinking up. Hosepipes can be coiled and hung on brackets if they do not come with their own reel. Sharpening stones: these are fragile - flat stones, cigar and canoe stones are best stored safely in boxes with padding to steady them. Flat stones need a board with end stops to hold them while in use.

  • Safe Use and Maintenance of Hand Tools
    Safe use and Maintenance of Hand Tools General Principles • Know your limits – attempting to over exert yourself or a tool are equally likely to result in injury. • The safe working distance for any tool that is swung is a minimum of two tool lengths. • When felling, the safe working distance is two tree lengths. • Better quality tools will enhance your ability to work. Poor quality tools will quickly become damaged, dangerous and frustrating to work with. • Keep the sharp edges of tools protected when in transport, to protect their cutting edges as well as your hands. An old sock, a length of rag or even a cardboard sleeve will reduce the likelihood of blades becoming chipped or dented, undoing your sharpening efforts in the process! • Do not leave tools lying about when not in use. Keep spare tools together in a tool bag or designated area and ensure no tools are left with their cutting edge uppermost (unless protected). Unsheathed bow saws must not be hung from tree branches. Lay flat on the ground • Never cut directly towards yourself, and avoid cutting into the ground. When snedding (removing side branches from a stem) you should always cut from butt to tip (excludes saws). This gives a cleaner cut and helps prolong the sharpness of a blade. See Fig 1. • All edged tools are safest when sharp. • Gloves will only enhance your ability to work if they are good quality and a good fit. Otherwise they should be avoided when using any swung tool. Chilterns Commons Project is run by the Chilterns Conservation Board and supported by the National Lottery through the Heritage Lottery Fund.
