Day 1

  • Operations: Measurement, cross cutting (using the miter saw)
  • Milling pipeline
  • Cuts of wood
  • Operations: Measuring, cutting
  • Tools: t square, pencil, Miter saw
  • Power tool: Miter Saw (MS), aka Sliding Compound Miter Saw (SCMS)
  • Marking wood
  • Design workflow. Learn from mistakes.
  • Plywood
  • Design tools. Paper, sketch, CAD / modeling. Other: clay, cardboard, foam core.
  • Safety: No loose hair / clothing / jewelry. Pay attention. Don't work alone. Review the safety videos.
  • Personal Protection. Eye, ear, lungs. Woodworking masks vs. infections disease masks; grit size and masks.

Day 2

  • Design and layout
  • Tools: band saw (BS), drill press (DP), random orbital sander (ROS), oscillating spindle sander (OSS), disc sand and belt sander.
  • Safety: Binding. Where does the machine want to throw the wood? Where will your hands go if the wood disappears?
  • Sandpaper, grit progression, sanding machines. Clean old grain before progression to new.
  • From tree to board
  • Milling multiple pieces
  • Wood grain. Hand versus power tools. Sandpaper doesn't care about the grain.
  • Tools: band saw, drill press, sanding machines
  • Sawdust in the woodshop. Safety, slippery, and registration.

Day 3

  • Tool ontology. See Tools.
  • Wood grain
  • Jigs
  • Screws versus glue. Screws as clamps. Glue cure time.
  • Router. See safety instructions and “wood is on the left” in Week 2 of Project 1 – Food Tray
  • Hand tools care about the grain
  • Tools: table saw (TS), router.
  • Finishes, food safe, surface appearance
  • Mask tip: valved masks to prevent fogging

Neoteny

Both neoteny and progenesis result in paedomorphism (or paedomorphosis), a type of heterochrony. It is the retention in adults of traits previously seen only in the young. Such retention is important in evolutionary biology, domestication and evolutionary developmental biology. Some authors define paedomorphism as the retention of larval traits, as seen in salamanders.

Slip Matching

Veneernet

Book Matching The most commonly used match in the industry is where every other leaf of veneer is turned over, like the pages of a book. Thus the grain is mirrored in each adjacent leaf. The visual effect created is that veneer joints match, creating a symmetrical pattern.

Open CNC Furniture | Make:

Open design isn't just for machines and electronics, With the rise in popularity of CNC routers and laser cutters, there is now an expanding open furniture movement. The result is a fabrication movement where designs are shared globally but fabricated locally and parametric design enables infinite configuration for personal fabrication.
