  2. Rake angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rake_angle

    In machining, the rake angle is a parameter used in various cutting processes, describing the angle of the cutting face relative to the workpiece. There are three types of rake angles: positive, zero or neutral, and negative. Positive rake: A tool has a positive rake when the face of the cutting tool slopes away from the cutting edge at inner side.

  3. Quarter sawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarter_sawing

    Wood cut in this way is prized for certain applications, but it will tend to be more expensive as well. In cutting a log, quarter sawn boards can be produced in several ways, but if a log is cut for maximum yield it will produce only a few quarter sawn boards among the total; if a log is cut to produce only quarter sawn boards there will be ...

  4. Speed square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_square

    Common lines made using a speed square include perpendicular cut marks and Angles definition of an angle for roofs, stairways, and decks. The tool uses a 0° reference. This means when a board is squared off the tool reads 0°. The angle derived is actually a complementary angle, for example a 22.5° angle is actually 67.5°. The sum of the ...

  5. Rift sawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rift_sawing

    Diagonal- and stepped-cut rift-sawing is intermediate to flat-sawn and radial cut lumber. The angle of the bastard grain may differ along the width of the board or between opposing sides, and enhances the appearance of ray fleck. Flat-sawing is the quickest method, producing the least wood waste and largest possible boards from a log.

  6. Try square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Try_square

    A try square or try-square is a woodworking tool used for marking and checking 90° angles on pieces of wood. Though woodworkers use many different types of square, the try square is considered one of the essential tools for woodworking. [1] The square in the name refers to the 90° angle.

  8. File (tool) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_(tool)

    A single-cut file has one set of parallel teeth while a cross-cut or double-cut file has a second set of cuts forming diamond shaped cutting surfaces. [1] In Swiss-pattern files the teeth are cut at a shallower angle, and are graded by number, with a number 1 file being coarser than a number 2, etc.

  9. Saw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saw

    In woodworking, a cut made at (or close to) a right angle to the direction of the wood grain of the workpiece. A crosscut saw is used to make this type of cut. Rip cut In woodworking, a cut made parallel to the direction of the grain of the workpiece. A ripsaw is used to make this type of cut. Plytooth blade
