Hardware
When a screw is driven into timber the threaded shank of a screw cuts its way through
the fibres and this gives greater holding power than nails.

10. Boring for Screws – traditional wood screws or long threads
(Cross out the incorrect word)
Step 1:
The top member is bored with a drill size slightly larger/smaller than shank
diameter of the screw
Step 2:
Countersink if necessary / always required
Step 3:
In hardwood a pilot hole slightly less than the root diameter/ shank diameter
of the screw should be drilled
In softwood no pilot hole is required or a bradawl maybe used

5. a) Draw sketches to distinguish between dovetail nailing and skew nailing.
b) Name the type of nailing from the definitions given.
The nails are angled towards each other and this
makes it a little more difficult for the two pieces of
wood to be pulled apart.
Used where the timber thickness or position
prevents normal nailing methods from being used.
6. Describe two times that it may be necessary to predrill a hole before nailing.

Nuts and Bolts
Name the following bolts and match their uses.
Used instead of hexagonal bolt for a
more decorative and smooth finish.
Fasteners apply controlled pressure
between joint members.(bench tops)
Used to join larger members where
strength is required e.g. bunk beds
Used with connector bolts for making
strong right angle joints.
Used to joined units together such
as kitchen cabinets.
Used with T-nuts to secure table
legs to table tops
Use in timber, particle board or
composite materials. This fastener
will leave a flush surface that allows
the correct size bolt to be used in the
fixing

Materials > Hardware and Allied Materials > Adhesives
The correct use of glue plays an important part in many wood-using industries, such as
furniture construction and cabinet making. Used mainly for securing pieces of wood
together, as for joints, inlaying, plywood and for fixing mouldings.
In general, surfaces to be bonded should be free from moisture, dust, dirt and grease
and the assembled parts should form a good fit.
Distinguish between the following glues.
Contact Adhesive
