WOOD WORK HAND TOOLS 2

Driving Tools

Woodworking driving hand tools are instruments used to insert and fasten components together, typically by driving nails, screws, or other fasteners into wood. These tools play a crucial role in assembling and joining wood pieces securely. Examples include hammers, screwdrivers, mallets etc.

1. Hammer: Hammers are versatile tools used for driving nails, brads, and other fasteners into wood. They also play a role in shaping and adjusting wooden pieces. Different types of hammers, like claw hammers, are suitable for various tasks, including pulling out nails.

2. Mallet: Mallets are employed when a softer, non-marring impact is needed. They are ideal for tasks like assembling joinery or tapping pieces together without damaging the wood. Woodworkers often use mallets with chisels to provide controlled force for carving and shaping.

3. Spanner: Spanners, also known as wrenches, are crucial for tightening or loosening nuts and bolts in woodworking machinery or furniture assembly. They come in various sizes and types, ensuring a secure grip on different fasteners.

4. Screwdriver: Screwdrivers are essential for inserting and removing screws. They come in various types, including flathead and Phillips, matching different screw designs. Woodworkers use screwdrivers to secure joints, fasten hardware, and assemble wooden components.

Holding tools

Woodworking involves various hand-holding tools that are essential for grasping, manipulating, and controlling workpieces or other tools. The following are examples of holding tools:

1. Vice: A bench vice secures workpieces for cutting, drilling, or shaping. Available in different types, such as bench vises and pipe vices.

2. Clamps: It is used for holding workpieces together or secures them to a work surface during machining or assembly. Types include C-clamps, bar clamps, and spring clamps..

Care and maintenance of Wood work hand tools

Proper care and maintenance of woodworking hand tools are crucial for ensuring their longevity and optimal performance. Here are some general tips:

1. Wipe tools clean after each use to remove sawdust, dirt, and moisture.
2. Keep tools dry to prevent rust. Store them in a dry environment.
3. Apply a thin coat of oil or rust inhibitor to metal parts regularly.
4. Regularly sharpen blades of cutting tools such as chisels and planes using sharpening stones or honing guides.
5. Maintain the correct bevel angle for optimal cutting performance.
6. Store tools in a clean, organized toolbox or rack to prevent damage and facilitate easy access.
7. Regularly check the alignment of cutting tools to maintain accuracy. Adjust and realign if necessary.
8. Use tools for their intended purpose to prevent damage.
9. Use blade guards or edge protectors to prevent accidental damage to cutting edges during storage.
10. Periodically inspect all tools for wear, damage, or signs of malfunction. Address any issues promptly.
