Chisel:
Chisel kits are available in the woodworking room.
There are also clamps for holding down your wooden piece to the table.
There is also a vice attached to the table. Make sure vice is tight and your wooden piece is firmly attached.
This is a YouTube video showing some ways to use a chisel:
- Splitting = cut along the wood fibers
- Chopping = cut across the wood fibers
- Slicing = edge cut along the fibers at the edge of a piece
- Pairing = edge cut across the fibers at the edge of a piece
- Lots of combinations of these can be used to make our parts
- forward to 7 minutes to make a rounded end
- forward to 8 minutes to make a rounded cut in wood
- forward to 9 minutes to flatten a surface
- forward to 9:30 minutes to chip a channel
- forward to 11 minutes to rond corners
This is another YouTube video on the safety while handling a chisel.
