A scriber is a hand tool used in metal work to mark lines on workpieces, prior to machining.The process of using a scriber is called scribing and is just part of the process of marking out.
Beads are usually cut directly into the edge of the item to which the bead is being applied. However, beads applied across the grain are usually cut into a separate piece, which is then fixed in position. A bead is also an important design element in wood turning, a ring-shape or convex curve incised into a piece by the use of a chisel or skew. [3]
A construction buyer will seek quotes on prices and availability of materials from a variety of suppliers, and manage and report on the accumulative cost of all new purchases. Also required of a buyer is ensuring that all materials comply with health and safety guidelines, and that the project estimator is fully briefed on the cost of materials ...
Chamfering: Cutting an angle on the corner of a cylinder. Parting: The tool is fed radially into the workpiece to cut off the end of a part. Threading : A tool is fed along and across the outside or inside surface of rotating parts to produce external or internal threads .
Device with grooves and chucks. A jig's primary purpose is to provide repeatability, accuracy, and interchangeability in the manufacturing of products. [1]An example of a jig is when a key is duplicated; the original is used as a jig so the new key can have the same path as the old one.
Close-up shot of a diamond-pattern knurling on a cylindrical work piece. Knurling method: left/right with tips raised, spiral angle: 30°, pitch: 1 mm, profile angle: 90° Knurling is a manufacturing process, typically conducted on a lathe, whereby a pattern of straight, angled or crossed lines is rolled into the material. Knurling can also ...
An angle grinder, also known as a side grinder or disc grinder, is a handheld power tool used for grinding (abrasive cutting) and polishing. Although developed originally as tools for rigid abrasive discs, the availability of an interchangeable power source has encouraged their use with a wide variety of cutters and attachments.
In folding, clamping beams hold the longer side of the sheet. The beam rises and folds the sheet around a bend profile. The bend beam can move the sheet up or down, permitting the fabricating of parts with positive and negative bend angles. The resulting bend angle is influenced by the folding angle of the beam, tool geometry, and material ...
