  2. Drill bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit

    Spade bits are used for rough boring in wood. They tend to cause splintering when they emerge from the workpiece. Woodworkers avoid splintering by finishing the hole from the opposite side of the work. Spade bits are flat, with a centering point and two cutters. The cutters are often equipped with spurs in an attempt to ensure a cleaner hole.

  3. Drilling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling

    Drilling is a cutting process where a drill bit is spun to cut a hole of circular cross-section in solid materials. The drill bit is usually a rotary cutting tool, often multi-point. The bit is pressed against the work-piece and rotated at rates from hundreds to thousands of revolutions per minute. This forces the cutting edge against the work ...

  4. Drill bit sizes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit_sizes

    One aspect of this method of sizing is that the size increment between drill bits becomes larger as bit sizes get smaller: 100% for the step from 1/64 to 1/32, but a much smaller percentage between 1 47/64 and 1 3/4. Drill bit sizes are written as irreducible fractions. So, instead of 78/64 inch, or 1 14/64 inch, the size is noted as 1 7/32 inch.

  5. Drill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill

    A lightweight magnetic-mount drill. A drill is a tool used for making round holes or driving fasteners. It is fitted with a bit, either a drill or driver chuck. Hand-operated types are dramatically decreasing in popularity and cordless battery-powered ones proliferating due to increased efficiency and ease of use.

  6. Tipped tool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tipped_tool

    Tipped tool. A tipped tool is any cutting tool in which the cutting edge consists of a separate piece of material that is brazed, welded, or clamped onto a body made of another material. In the types in which the cutter portion is an indexable part clamped by a screw, the cutters are called inserts (because they are inserted into the tool body).

  7. Drill bit shank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit_shank

    Drill bit shank. The shank is the end of a drill bit grasped by the chuck of a drill. The cutting edges of the drill bit contact the workpiece, and are connected via the shaft with the shank, which fits into the chuck. In many cases a general-purpose arrangement is used, such as a bit with cylindrical shaft and shank in a three-jaw chuck which ...

  8. Screw-cutting lathe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw-cutting_lathe

    A screw-cutting lathe is a machine (specifically, a lathe) capable of cutting very accurate screw threads via single-point screw-cutting, which is the process of guiding the linear motion of the tool bit in a precisely known ratio to the rotating motion of the workpiece. This is accomplished by gearing the leadscrew (which drives the tool bit's ...

  9. Lathe faceplate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lathe_faceplate

    Unusual slotted faceplate. A lathe faceplate is a basic workholding accessory for a wood or metal turning lathe. It is a circular metal (usually cast iron) plate which fixes to the end of the lathe spindle. The workpiece is then clamped to the faceplate, typically using t-slot nuts in slots in the faceplate, or less commonly threaded holes in ...
