The first section outlines the rationale and content of the two training programs as well as the basic VESL objectives that they seek to address. The next section, a VESL learning guide, discusses the main principles of the ESL method, learning characteristics of ESL students, the ESL learning environment, curriculum development, teaching techniques (including survival and competency-based methods, the notional-functional approach, use of the world outside the classroom, and total physical response), student assessment, and placement levels. Educational goals and curriculum design are covered next. The carpentry curriculum includes 25 units that are intended to provide students with hands-on and classroom instruction in the identification, proper handling, care, and maintenance of trade tools and equipment; the fundamental processes and techniques of the carpentry trade; applicable codes and safety practices; and blueprint reading and job estimation techniques.

    How to Make ‘Condor Tails’ BY JAMEEL ABRAHAM An ingenious way to combine routers, a band saw and hand tools for big dovetails. know what you’re thinking: “Another opinion on how to cut I dovetails.” I hear you. But this one’s different. I promise. No back and forth over pins or tails first. No Rob Cosman vs. Frank Klausz. Well, actually a little Klausz. When I built my first serious workbench in the 1990s I practically memorized Scott Landis’ “The Work- bench Book” (Taunton) and like many woodworkers I was attracted to Frank Klausz’s beautiful bench, especially the large, crisp dovetails that joined the parts of the tail vise. Klausz told us what tools he used to cut the joints, but didn’t elaborate much on technique. I suppose with a lifetime of skill at your command, you just pick up the tools and the joint emerges. I wanted the crisp look of Klausz’s joints without waiting 20 years to develop the skill. After build- ing several large benches over the past few years, this technique emerged. Best of Both Worlds I’m a big believer in making dovetail Enormous perfection. Cutting large-scale dovetails, such as for this workbench, can be a challenge. joints that fit right off the saw. That’s a This technique makes it straightforward. skill that’s easy to learn with some prac- tice. But not so with the beefy members of a workbench, or large-scale furni- railing just to get the thing vertical so where they excel. This is truly blended ture.

  • Woodworking Glossary, a Comprehensive List of Woodworking Terms and Their Definitions That Will Help You Understand More About Woodworking
    Welcome to the Woodworking Glossary, a comprehensive list of woodworking terms and their definitions that will help you understand more about woodworking. Each word has a complete definition, and several have links to other pages that further explain the term. Enjoy. Woodworking Glossary A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z | #'s | A | A-Frame This is a common and strong building and construction shape where you place two side pieces in the orientation of the legs of a letter "A" shape, and then cross brace the middle. This is useful on project ends, and bases where strength is needed. Abrasive Abrasive is a term use to describe sandpaper typically. This is a material that grinds or abrades material, most commonly wood, to change the surface texture. Using Abrasive papers means using sandpaper in most cases, and you can use it on wood, or on a finish in between coats or for leveling. Absolute Humidity The absolute humidity of the air is a measurement of the amount of water that is in the air. This is without regard to the temperature, and is a measure of how much water vapor is being held in the surrounding air. Acetone Acetone is a solvent that you can use to clean parts, or remove grease. Acetone is useful for removing and cutting grease on a wooden bench top that has become contaminated with oil.

Abstract Currently, there are a few low-cost set-up aquatic research animal housing system constructions out in publication and they are only suitable for warm water animals but not for cold water animals. We have constructed the first novel cold water stand-alone aquatic animal research housing system that can be used to rear small fish species and embryos with temperature requirements ranging from below room temperature to -5°C. The advantages of this system are that it is less expensive option compared to commercial vendors and is easy to assembly.
