2. Tap and die - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_and_die

   The work piece (blank) to be threaded, which is usually slightly smaller in diameter than the die's major diameter, is given a slight taper (chamfer) at the end that is to be threaded. This chamfer helps center the die on the blank and reduces the force required to start the thread cutting. [8] Once the die has started, it self-feeds.

Chamfers may be formed in either inside or outside adjoining faces of an object or room.

During the installation cycle of a lockbolt, the collar is deformed around the pin with locking grooves using special tooling. The tool engages onto the pintail, which is an extra portion of pin material protruding past the collar that the tool grabs and pulls.

6. Block plane - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_plane

   A block plane is frequently used for paring end grain. This is possible because a block plane has its blade set at a shallow bed angle, allowing the blade to slice through end grain more efficiently; furthermore, for this to work, the plane is frequently held at an angle sometimes as much as 45 degrees to the direction of travel, so that the cutting edge slices the wood fibers as they pass ...

7. Router (woodworking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Router_(woodworking)

   The router [a] is a power tool with a flat base and a rotating blade extending past the base. The spindle may be driven by an electric motor or by a pneumatic motor. It routs (hollows out) an area in hard material, such as wood or plastic. Routers are used most often in woodworking, especially cabinetry. They may be handheld or affixed to ...
