2. Block and tackle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_and_tackle

   Consider the set of pulleys that form the moving block and the parts of the rope that support this block. If there are n of these parts of the rope supporting the load F B, then a force balance on the moving block shows that the tension in each of the parts of the rope must be F B /n. This means the input force on the rope is F A =F B /n.

3. Bridgeport (machine tool brand) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridgeport_(machine_tool...

   Machine tapers for tool holding included Morse tapers (on early models) and the R8 taper (a widely used standard that Bridgeport created) on most models. Both Morse and R8 allowed for both collets and solid holders, and a drill chuck could be held by either of the latter. Currently R8 and Erickson #30 Quick Change tool holders are available.

4. Woodchipper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodchipper

   The cutting blades of a small electric chipper. The blades can be removed, by loosening the bolt in the center, to facilitate sharpening or for replacement. Much larger machines for wood processing exist. "Whole-tree chippers" and "recyclers", which can typically handle material diameters of 60–180 cm (2–6 ft), may employ drums, disks, or a ...

5. Pulley - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulley

   A sheave or pulley wheel is a pulley using an axle supported by a frame or shell (block) to guide a cable or exert force. A pulley may have a groove or grooves between flanges around its circumference to locate the cable or belt. The drive element of a pulley system can be a rope, cable, belt, or chain.

6. Brace (tool) - Wikipedia

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

   A brace is a hand tool used with a bit (drill bit or auger) to drill holes, usually in wood. Pressure is applied to the top while the handle is rotated. If the bit's lead and cutting spurs are both in good working order, the user should not have to apply any pressure other than for balance: the lead will pull the bit through the wood.

7. Grinding dresser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinding_dresser

   A grinding dresser or wheel dresser is a tool to dress (slightly trim) the surface of a grinding wheel.Grinding dressers are used to return a wheel to its original round shape (to true it up), to expose fresh grains for renewed cutting action (including cleaning away clogged areas), or to make a different profile (cross-sectional shape) on the wheel's edge.
