Introduction to wood working workshop
Wood shop :
It deals with carpentry. It contains timber , tools and art of joinery.
Carpentry :
The meaning of carpentry can be defined as the art of working with timber in
order to construct and maintain buildings, furniture and other objects
Types of carpentry
While the term carpenter is used to refer to anyone that works with wood, there
are actually different types of carpentry. So what does a carpenter do?
The two main types of carpentry include:
1. Rough carpentry
Rough carpentry is all work that doesn't require a neat finish as it will be
covered up by walls or other items.
Structural carpentry is the most common type of rough carpentry and these
carpenters are very skilled in quickly erecting the structural components of a
building, such as beams, posts and rafters. Rough carpenters commonly work in
roofing and framing.
2. Finish carpentry
Finish carpentry refers to all carpentry work that will be visible once a building
has been completed and, as such, finish carpenters work to a high level of detail.
The type of work that finish carpenters do includes decking, flooring, building
staircases, installing windows and doors, erecting pergolas or other structures,
install trim and moulding and so on.

Art of joinery :
Joinery is the woodworking term describing the method of which two or more
pieces of wood are connected. The origins of Joinery can be traced back to the
first wooden structures and pieces of furniture made by man. If it was made
from more than one piece of wood, it needed to be joined. It is a beautiful,
skilful craft, and understanding these artisanal techniques helps in your
appreciation of the woodwork of your favourite designer piece.

3. Wood Vice :
A vise is a woodworking tool that woodworkers use for clamping- the
holding of pieces of wood during projects such as drilling, wood
planning, filing, sanding, or sawing. Usually, the vise is mounted in the
front of a workbench. It’s then bolted safely on a workbench to allow for
heavy-duty tasks to be carried out without the pieces falling. Using the
best woodworking vise for your projects will ensure precision and top
quality final products.

4. Hack Saw :
A hacksaw has sharp teeth and a blade under tension in a blade used for
cutting different materials like metal, plastics, and wood.
5. Chisels :
The wood chisel is an essential constituent of your toolset. A wood chisel
is a tool with a characteristically shaped cutting edge of a blade on its
end. A chisel is used for cutting or carving wood, by hand, struck with a
mallet, or mechanical power.
The handle and blade of some types of chisel are made of metal or of
wood with a sharp edge in it. There are different types of chisels.

To Know Different Joint In Wood Working/Carpentry
8
AQIB SHAH {WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL} CU-2219-2021
This is when two pieces of wood are joined using a dowel reinforcement. It’s an
efficient and cost-effective solution for modern manufacturers, thus it’s quite
commonly used in factory-made furniture.
A beautifully simple but fairly weak joint which is commonly used in tables,
picture frames and other light applications. It consists of two pieces of wood,
bevelled on the end/edge (usually at 45°), and glued together to create a right
9
AQIB SHAH {WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL} CU-2219-2021
angle. This joint has the advantage of incredible aesthetics but the disadvantage
of low strength threshold
Another clean, aesthetically pleasing joint with, sadly, limited applications and
limited strength. Two pieces of wood are placed at an intersection (X position),
with identical cutouts in the centre of each piece to enable a flush over-lap. A
handy joint used in cabinetry as partitions, as well as in Torsion Boxes.
10
AQIB SHAH {WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL} CU-2219-2021
A common traditional woodworking joint with historic origins, the Mortise and
Tenon is significant in the simplicity of its design and the strength it provides.
There are a seemingly endless array of types, mostly a variation of the Mortise
(hole) or Tenon (tongue), all which provide varying levels of stability. This joint
can’t be underestimated and is a beautiful example of form and function in one.
You will most likely have multiple examples of furniture with this joint in your
home right now!
An easy one to grasp due to the name, this joint is made from two pieces of
wood which have a series of small, complementary cut-outs made on the ends
which interlock to make a right angle. This joint has increased strength and
stability due to the two-way pressure load, and can also add hugely to the
aesthetic of the piece.
11
AQIB SHAH {WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL} CU-2219-2021
Perhaps the signature joint in furniture design and fine carpentry, the Dovetail
has it all; strength, aesthetic and endurance. Similar in principle to the Finger
joint, the Dovetail joint differentiates itself via the complementary cut-out
“fingers” being diagonally cut and in a number of configurations, depending on
the type. These include the Through Dovetail, the Half-Blind Dovetail, the
Secret Mitred (or Full-Blind) Dovetail, the Secret Double-lapped Dovetail and
the Sliding Dovetail.
The crown jewel of these is the Secret Mitred Dovetail. It combines the
Dovetail joint’s strength and quality with the Mitre joint’s aesthetically pleasing
form. Central to traditional Western furniture design is the desire to hide the
mechanics of a piece and only reveal its beauty. Much like a magician’s trick,
this joint achieves the effect.

Welding Tools
The common welding tools used for gas welding purposes are as follows:
1. Spanner
2. Hammer
3. Pliers
4. Chisel
5. Tongs
6. Wire brush
7. Clamps
8. Angular grinder
9. Try square
10. Files
11. Centre punch
12. Steel tape
#1 Spanner
Spanners are generally used for tightening or loosening various fasteners. These are
designed with drop-forge steel or carbon steel. But in welding, a double-ended
spanner is used for tightening and opening the nuts of the welding apparatus and job.
13
AQIB SHAH {WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL} CU-2219-2021
#2 Hammer
Welding hammers are essential tools used for chipping to remove slab-coating
from the weld area. It is used for shaping the job. Normally a 500 grams
hammer is used for the purpose. There are three types of hammers – ball pane,
cross pane, and straight one. For large-sized jobs, a Sledgehammer may be used.
#3 Pliers
Welding pliers are specially designed to effectively remove welding spatter.
The multiple jaws of the piler are used to pull the wire and install the tips and
nozzles.
#4 Chisel
Normally, chisels are used to cut flat, round, or angled iron and cut sheets of
thick metal. They are also used to remove unnecessary metal from a work
surface by cutting it into small pieces. But in welding, It is used for cutting the
jobs and for cleaning the slag, spatter, and surplus metal from the job after
welding.
#5 Tongs
Tongs are hand tools used by blacksmiths to lift and hold hot weld pieces of
metal. They are usually made of wrought iron or steel and are better than pliers
or vice grips. These are available in different sizes and shapes which are
intended to hold the job while welding.
#6 Wire Brush
It is used for cleaning the welding surface before and after welding. It consists
of steel wires and is made of stainless steel. Keep in mind that in welding,
always use a brush with stainless steel bristles and a chipping hammer made of
stainless steel.
#7 Clamps
Welding clamps are sheets of metal that temporarily hold two parts of material
tightly together. Welding clamps permit you to securely hold your workpiece,
so the operator will produce a tighter joint. This makes it easy to run the arc and
join the pieces together without worrying about moving sheets. These types of
clamps are generally available in varieties of sizes and shapes.
14
AQIB SHAH {WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL} CU-2219-2021
#8 Angular Grinder
Angular grinders are commonly seen in metal fabrication and some metal shops.
They are types of handheld power tools attached to consumable stone discs or
blades. These discs spin at high speed to grind, cut or give a smooth finishing
touch to weld metal
#9 Try Square
It is an L-shaped measuring instrument. Its blade is usually graduated in
centimetres and the same is used for job measurement purposes. It is also used
for checking the right angles of a rectangular job.
#10 Files
These are similar to angular grinders, used to remove rough edges and burrs
from the metal you cut. The file tools are available in various shapes and sizes
which are used for work finishing purposes. Metal files are also commonly used
for all kinds of other metal projects.

8. Arbor Support:
Arbor support is casting with a bearing that supports the outer end of a
arbor. It also helps to align the outer end of the arbor with the spindle.
Arbor support prevents the springing of the outer end of arbor in cutting
operations. Generally, there are two types of arbor supports used in the
milling machines. The first one has a small diameter bearing hole of a
maximum diameter of 1 inch. The second one has a large diameter
bearing hole of up to 23/4 inch.
9. Ram:

Shaper Machine :
As the name suggests, shaper machines are used to give different sizes to
the workpiece. Shaper machines are commonly used to produce flat
surfaces, grooves, slots, etc.
In the shaper machine, a single-point cutting tool has used that retrieves
and rubs the workpieces and removes unwanted metal from the
workpieces in the form of chips.
The workpiece shaper machine has an adjustable tool post by the grip.
A single point cuttings tool is in reciprocating motion that rubs the
workpiece and cuts off unwanted metal in the form of chips.
It consists of several important parts which take proper care of it.
These are ram, table, clappers box, tool head, column, cross rail, stroke
adjustment, table support, base, etc.
The shaper machine operates on a quick return single crank mechanism
that provides recrossing motion to the tool.
29
AQIB SHAH {WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL} CU-2219-2021
Step – 1. Basis
As the name suggests, this is the basis of the shaper machine.
All other parts of the machine exist on this basis.
The base is built with cast iron capable of taking all the compressive load
by various parts of the machine. The shock-absorbing capacity of the base
is high.
Step – 2. Column
The pillar is present above the base and is attached to the base.
It is also made of cast irons and is box-like in shape.
The column serves as the casing of drive mechanism components such as
gear mechanisms, pulleys, etc., and also supports reciprocating RAM and
the workforce.
Step – 3. Guidelines
Two directions are given at the top and side of the column.
Ram rotates on a guideway, which is present at the top of the column, and
the table moves up and down in another guideway, which is present at the
edge of the column.
Step – 4. Table support
Table sliding support is present nears the base in front of the table that
supports the table while slidings up and down the path of the column.
Step – 5. Table
The table is a metal body that slides up and down the direction passage of
the column.
The main function of the table is to hold the workpiece, and the vice
president is placed on this table.
The table is in the shape of the box, and the T-slots are cut on the table in
such a way that the vice of any machine can be fitted on that T-slot and fit
properly into it.

Base :
It is one of the main parts of a drilling machine, it carries the entire weight of
the machine, and transfer the weight to the ground.
The base of a drilling machine is generally made of cast iron or steel, and it is
very rigid.
At the top of the base, there are some slots provided to support the big jobs.
And on one side of the base, a radial column or a pillar is situated.
The base is generally bolted with the ground or in some case the base is
supported by two or four legs.
Column or pillar:
The column or pillar is situated on one side of the base. In general, we use a
radial column so that the movement of the arm is possible in a clockwise or
anti-clockwise direction.
The column is also made of cast iron or steel and is also very rigid so that it can
carry the load of the arm as well as a drill head.
33
AQIB SHAH {WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL} CU-2219-2021
A sliding table is mounted on the column so that the table can have up and
down motion according to the need.
Upper arm:
At the top of the column, there is an upper arm, which carries the drill head and
also the house of the driving mechanism. The upper arm is also made of the
same material as the base. To make the structure rigid.
Worktable:
The worktable is generally made of cast iron and it is mounted on the
column. T-slots are provided at the top surface of the table may be in some table
there is a vice which also helps to hold the job.
The table can move up and down as also right or left according to the job and
tool arrangement. The up and down motion of the table can be given by hand as
well as by some electrical mechanism. We use a rack and pinion mechanism for
a vertical moment of the table.
The shape of the table can be rectangular or also circular.
Drill head :
One side of the arm a drill head is mounted, a drill head is consist of various
feed and driving mechanism.
A drill chuck is mounted over it. A drill head can slide up and down as per the
requirement of the job.
A V-types belt is provided to transfer the power from the motor to the pulley
and from pulley, the mechanical power is transferred to the drill head.
Feed Mechanism:
In a drill machine, we use an electric motor, V-belt, and pulley to transfer the
power from the motor to the spindle.
For the up and down motion of the drill head, we use hand and as well as
automatic feed by an electrical motor. Here also a rack and pinion are used to
convert the rotational movement from electrical motor or by hand to the
straight-line movement.
34
AQIB SHAH {WORKSHOP LAB MANUAL} CU-2219-2021
Spindle:
It is a circular taper shaft which helps to hold the drill chuck. It is made of high
carbon chromium steel or stainless steel or steel alloys.
It transfers the rotary motion from drill head to drill jigs.
There is a keyhole provided on the spindle to change the drill chuck.
The spindle also can move up and down with the help of rack and pinion
mechanism.
Chuck:
The chuck is mounted on the lower end of the spindle, it holds the drill jig. Here
also a keyhole is provided to change the drill jigs.
Drill chucks are generally self-centering. In a drill machine, we use three-jaw
chuck. And it is made of special alloy steel.
Electric Motor:
In a drilling machine, we use a single-phase ac motor. Which can run at an rpm
of 600-5000, or maybe more for high duty drilling machine.
Pully or gears:
Pully or gears is used to transmit power and also for getting different speed. In a
drilling machine, we use bevel gear to transmit power at an angle of 90 degrees.
So now we are going to learn how power transferred in a Drilling machine.
