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
