  2. Sharpening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpening

    The main benefit of using an electric sharpener is speed with many models that can complete the sharpening process in one to two minutes. The disadvantage is that the sharpening angle is fixed so some specialized knives, like a Japanese style Santoku, may need additional attention to sharpen to the ideal angle.

  3. Gas tungsten arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_tungsten_arc_welding

    GTAW weld area. Manual gas tungsten arc welding is a relatively difficult welding method, due to the coordination required by the welder. Similar to torch welding, GTAW normally requires two hands, since most applications require that the welder manually feed a filler metal into the weld area with one hand while manipulating the welding torch in the other.

  4. Arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_welding

    Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), or tungsten/inert-gas (TIG) welding, is a manual welding process that uses a non-consumable electrode made of tungsten, an inert or semi-inert gas mixture, and a separate filler material. Especially useful for welding thin materials, this method is characterized by a stable arc and high quality welds, but it ...

  5. Knife sharpening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knife_sharpening

    Knife sharpening is the process of making a knife or similar tool sharp by grinding against a hard, rough surface, typically a stone, [1] or a flexible surface with hard particles, such as sandpaper. Additionally, a leather razor strop , or strop, is often used to straighten and polish an edge.

  7. Plasma arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_arc_welding

    Plasma arc welding is an arc welding process wherein coalescence is produced by the heat obtained from a constricted arc setup between a tungsten/alloy tungsten electrode and the water-cooled (constricting) nozzle (non-transferred arc) or between a tungsten/alloy tungsten electrode and the job (transferred arc). The process employs two inert ...

  8. Gas metal arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_metal_arc_welding

    Spray transfer GMAW. Gas metal arc welding (GMAW), sometimes referred to by its subtypes metal inert gas (MIG) and metal active gas (MAG) is a welding process in which an electric arc forms between a consumable MIG wire electrode and the workpiece metal(s), which heats the workpiece metal(s), causing them to fuse (melt and join).

  9. Atomic hydrogen welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_hydrogen_welding

    The work is a part of the electrical circuit only to the extent that a portion of the arc comes in contact with the work, at which time a voltage exists between the work and each electrode. This process is being replaced by gas metal-arc welding , mainly because of the availability of inexpensive inert gases.
