TLE activity Made By Kurt Bastian C. Omboy Grade and Section : 7 Freedom Driving Tools • Driving tools are tools used for pushing in nails, screws into position. Examples are: Hammers: Hammers have two distinct parts, the handle and the head. While the handle can be made of wood or metallic material, the head is always made of high carbon steel • Ball peen hammer • Screw driver • Rubber mallet • Star screw driver • Flat screw driver Ball-peen hammer • The ball peen hammer was originally designed for peening, or shaping metal materials by hammering. One end of the head is ball-shaped for this purpose. The other end is flat and is used for driving Screw driver • screwdriver, tool, usually hand-operated, for turning screws with slotted heads. For screws with one straight diametral slot cut across the head, standard screwdrivers with flat blade tips and in a variety of sizes are used. Rubber Mallet • Rubber mallets are lighter and cheaper than mallets made of metal. They are most commonly used for striking an object that a normal hammer would leave a mark in. The rubber mallet has many uses but is most commonly used for forcing tight fitting applications together, wood working and evening out dents in metal. Star screw driver • Known variously as star head screwdrivers, pointed screwdrivers, six-point screwdrivers, and torx screwdrivers, these versions are all the same type. Torx is the trademark for a type of screw head with a six-point star-shaped intrusion, hence the generic name star screwdriver. Flat screw driver • a screwdriver featuring a single flat blade that is designed to be used with a screw that has a straight slot across its top compare phillips screwdriver Cutting Tools • What is cutting tool? Cutting tool is a wedge shaped and sharp edged device that is used to remove excess layer of material from the workpiece by shearing during machining in order to obtain desired shape, size and accuracy. It is rigidly mounted on the machine tool. • Scissors • Knives • Saws • Pipe Cutters • Cutting Pliers Scissors • Scissors are used for cutting various thin materials, such as paper, cardboard, metal foil, cloth, rope, and wire. A large variety of scissors and shears all exist for specialized purposes. Knives • a knife is used for cutting, chopping, dicing, slicing, mincing, peeling, separating, and other kitchen tasks where the thin metal shaft of a blade is of value for food preparation. Saws • saw, tool for cutting solid materials to prescribed lengths or shapes. Most saws take the form of a thin metal strip with teeth on one edge or a thin metal disk with teeth on the periphery. Pipe Cutters • Pipe cutters are tools used for slicing or cutting pipes. They are commonly used by plumbers due to their reliability and efficiency. In addition to providing clean, professional-quality cuts, pipe cutters are often more convenient, fast, and easy to use than alternatives such as hacksaws. Cutting Pliers • For work involving cutting and skinning wires, cutting and removing pins, nails and other fasteners. Holding Tools • A manufacturing holding tool, also known as a fixture, is a support device often used in the manufacturing industry to securely position a tool in a specific spot or orientation. • Vise Grip • C-Clamp • Drill Vise • Machinist Vise • Long Nose Pliers Vise Grip • Vise-grip pliers have a myriad of uses beyond removing broken screws and loosening frozen nuts. You can use them to clamp small things in place, to remove stripped or broken screws and even to open a zipper when the pull breaks off C-Clamp • A C-clamp or G-clamp or G-cramp is a type of clamp device typically used to hold a wood or metal workpiece, and often used in, but are not limited to, carpentry and welding. Drill Vise • A drill press vise is a tool that holds a workpiece in place between its jaws so that it does not move when the drill bit is driven into it. It uses a threaded rod to force two jaws together, similar to other vises. Machinist Vise • An engineer's vise, also known as a metalworking vise, machinist's vise, or, informally, a "bench vise", is used to clamp metal instead of wood. It is used to hold metal when filing or cutting. It is sometimes made of cast steel or malleable cast iron, but most are made of cast iron. Long Nose Pliers • Proper use of long nose pliers: Use to grip small objects, reach awkward places, holding wires, bend loops, and attach wires. Work involving smaller gauge wire. Hand Tools • A hand tool is any tool that is powered by hand rather than a motor. Categories of hand tools include wrenches, pliers, cutters, files, striking tools, struck or hammered tools, screwdrivers, vises, clamps, snips, hacksaws, drills, and knives. • Hand Saw • Hacksaw • Clamp • Claw Hammer • Pliers Hand Saw • In woodworking and carpentry, hand saws, also known as "panel saws", are used to cut pieces of wood into different shapes. This is usually done in order to join the pieces together and carve a wooden object. Hacksaw • A hacksaw is a type of hand tool designed specifically for cutting through materials such as plastic, steel, and other metals. They are a variant of the traditional hand saw, typically used for cutting wood, and have become a staple tool for professionals and hobbyists alike Clamp • a device designed to bind or constrict or to press two or more parts together so as to hold them firmly. : any of various instruments or appliances having parts brought together for holding or compressing something. Claw Hammer • While these hammers all feature a round head for driving nails, the claw end is every bit as useful for prying, splitting wood, tearing drywall and other small demolition tasks. The claw is curved on a claw hammer, and straight on framing hammers. These hammers are best for: Woodworking Pliers • Pliers are made in various shapes and sizes and for many uses. Some are used for gripping something round like a pipe or rod, some are used for twisting wires, and others are designed to be used for a combination of tasks including cutting wire. Measuring Tools • A measuring tool is anything used to take a count of quantitative data, such as weight, length, time or temperature. Rulers and scales are two common types of measuring tools. Measuring tools can be very precise, but low quality ones can lead to faulty measurements. • • • • • Laser Level Angle Locator Spirit Level Protractor Ruler Laser Level • Laser levels are typically used in applications where a straight and level reference point is needed over a larger surface. They are almost like a visual chalk line. Use them for fitting dado rails, hanging picture frames and all other professional levelling applications where your point transfer need to be exact Angle Locator • An angle Locator is a great tool for measuring angles and for replicating the angle of an existing area. That's why it's often used by woodworkers and residential trim installers. Spirit Level • A Spirit Level is a tool used to indicate how parallel (level) or perpendicular (plumb) a surface is relative to the earth. A spirit level gets its name from the mineral spirit solution inside the levels. Protractor • A Protractor is a tool found in a geometry box usually made of plastic and used to measure angles. The protractor is also used to draw angles of given measures in degrees. There are different types of protractors that serve different purposes, such as a circular protractor which can measure angles up to 360o. Ruler • a straight strip of material (as wood or metal) marked off in units and used as a guide in drawing lines or for measuring. End of Presentation
