Enclosed is a sample of the tasks and course topic objectives developed

for the Project ABLE General Woodworking area.

Tasks for the entire area (grades 10, 11, and 12) have been identified

and course and topic objectives for these tasks have been developed. The

tasks with their corresponding objectives are not listed in any particular

sequence; the learning units, however, are being sequenced according to

their positions on the learning hierarchy.

RATIONALE FOR GENERAL WOODWORKING

In recent years, many curriculum experts have advocated the need for

defining and developing basic or core content courses. Project ABLE has

identified a basic or core curriculum in the General Woodworking area at

the grade ten level.

This identification was accomplished by describing all selected occu-

pations in this area, listing all basic tasks and developing course and

topic objectives for the tasks. A frequency count of objectives indentified

the extent to which given skills and knowledges appeared in a number of

selected occupations.

The results of the frequency count served as a basis for selecting

those skills and knowledges to be included in the Basic Woodworking course.

By definition, those skills and knowledges which are required by all or a

large number of occupations in the area can be considered as "basic" or

IIcore. 11

The objectives were arranged in order of frequency and the most fre-

quently occurring objectives were placed first in the basic or core sequence.

The exact number of objectives to be completed in grade ten was not speci-

fied, since it was only possible to make a rough estimate of the number of

learning units an individual student could complete in one year.

At this writing, it appears that the Basic Woodworking course will cover

the requirements of approximately one third or ten occupations in the sample.

In addition, it will serve as a base for the higher-level or more complex

occupations in the hierarchy. The transition form the basic course into

more specific jobs in different families should be a smooth one. The com-

pletion of the basic course should also assist the student in deciding what

career in woodworking he should pursue.

The entire course outline provides for exit levels at various points on

the hierarchy. in effect, these points serve as goals for the individual

student. After he satisfies the requirements of an exit level (represented

by an occupation), he will know that he has met the basic entry requirements

of the occupation and can progress to the next higher level.

GENERAL WOODWORKING: CARPENTRY

Carpenters make up the largest group of craftsmen in the buildingtrades. Great skill is required to work with the materials, tools, andmethods developed for use in construction today.

Construction work includes not only residential, commercial, indus-trial, and public buildings but also roads, bridges, dams, tunnels, andsimilar structures, as well as ships and other transportation equipment.In urban areas, carpenters tend to specialize in a particular field of con-struction and sometimes in the particular type of work performed. Thus acarpenter working for a homebuilding firm, for example, may install onlyhardwood floors or acoustic panels or millwork, and so on.

Although the general (journeyman) carpenter is not specified as ajob in this curriculum, some of the skills he must develop are representedin the specialized carpentry jobs selected. That is, apprenticeship train-ing for carpentry would include cribbing, roofing, framing, tile setting,siding, finishing, and other types of work. Vocational-technical trainingin these skills would be credited against apprenticeship time, or a car-penter may qualify to work in this field by augmenting vocational-technicaltraining with on-the-job training.

The outlook for employment for carpenters is directiy related to theeconomic outlook for the construction industry in general. In addition, anew development in this field is businesses specializing in repair andremodeling of homes and other buildings. Many carpenters do maintenancework in factories, office buildings, and other large establishments or workin captive shops in non-construction firms or governmental agencies. Someare self-employed or supplement other employment by doing small jobs ontheir own time.

GENERAL WOODWORKING: MILL CARPENTRY

Furniture and cabinets have developed from crude, simple designs of

years ago to the many beautiful styles available today. All of the cutting

and carving of these furnishings used to be done by hand, but to meet

today's demands for quantity, much of the work is now done by machine.

Similarly, many cabinet units are now constructed in the mill or shop and

then taken to the building site to be installed.

Whether doing production or custom work, the journeyman mill carpenter

or cabinetmaker must be knowledgeable in wood characteristics, drafting and

layout work, assembling and finishing operations. He must also be skilled

in the operation and care of the hand and machine tools used in woodworking.

High school graduation or its equivalent is required for entering

apprenticeship program for mill carpentry, and vocational-technical train-

ing in these skills will be credited as part of the time in apprenticeship.

In this locality, however, apprenticeship opportunities are scarce and many

of these craftsmen depend on on-the-job training to supplement their initial

technical training.

Although prefabrication will have some effect on the employment out-

look in this field, a skilled furniture or cabinetmaker can nearly always

find work. Also, woodworking is rewarding not only as a vocation but to

make things for personal or home use.

GENERAL WOODWORKING: PATTERNMAKING

The patternmaker is primarily engaged in the production, alteration,repair, and maintenance of patterns and core boxes. A pattern is a modelof a product, part, or other object that is to be cast in metal. To makethe casting mold, sand is rammed around a pattern mounted in a frame(flask); when .emoved, the pattern leaves a cavity into which molten metalis poured. Core boxes are used to make inserts which form interior cavi-ties, or projections in a casting. Patterns may be made of wood, plaster,plastiz, or metal; master patterns, which are used to make metal and plasticpatterns, are usually wood.

The general patternmaker must be able to work with all patternmakingmaterials. Apprenticeship is the principal means of qualifying as ajourneyman in this field, but vocational-technical training may be creditedtoward completion of the 5-year apprenticeship period. In some cases, on-the-job training may also be substituted for formal apprenticeship training.

A majority of patternmakers are employed in specially equipped foundryshops in plants which manufacture such products as machinery, transporta-tion equipment, and fabricated metal products. Others work in independentfoundries or in job shops that make patterns to order.

A highly skilled craftsman, the patternmaker usually earns more thanother woodworkers or foundry workers. In addition, with his metalworkingand woodworking skills, he can transfer to related jobs in other fieldswhen foundry work is not available.

b. Take out the plane which is in your tool kit. What kind of a

plane is it?

Look at the plane very carefully and match its parts with the

pictures on the previous page. MAKE SURE YOU KNOW EACH PART

BEFORE YOU DISASSEMBLE THE PLANE.

c. Go over to your instructor and point out the parts of the plane

to him. The instructor will tell you if you are ready to dis-

assemble the plane.

Instructor's Initials

d. Now you should be ready to take your plane apart. The steps are

listed below.

1. Lift the cam lever on the lever cap (14 on the picture of

the plane) and lift the lever cap from the plane. This

will permit you to remove the double-plane iron (1 and 2).

2. Lift off the double-plane iron (1 and 2). Using the nar-

row edge of the lover cap (4) as a screwdriver, loosen.

the cap screw (3) about two turns to the left. Slide the

plane-iron cap back, away from the cutting edge. Turn

the plane iron cap (2) to the left or right. THE PLANE-

IRON CAP MUST NOT TOUCH THE CUTTING EDGE. Now slide

the plane-iron cap down on the plane-iron slot and lift

off the plane-iron cap. Lay the parts down on the

bench. THE BEVEL OF THE PLANE IRON MUST FACE DOWN.

(See picture below.)

You have now disassembled your plane. This is as much

as you need td do. DO NOT TRY TO TAKE ANY OTHER PARTS

APART. The other parts are adjusted permanently at the

factory. If you have any trouble with your plane, check

with your instructor.

e. Now you should be ready to assemble the plane. The steps are listed

below.

1. Lay the plane-iron cap on the flat side of the plane

iron, as shown in Figure 1, with the screw in the slot.

2. Move the plane-iron cap back.

3. Turn the plane-iron cap so that it is straight with the

plane iron. MAKE SURE THAT THE PLANE-IRON CAP DOES

NOT TOUCH THE CUTTING EDGE. The plane-iron cap must be

placed so that the bevel faces down.

Figure 1

4. Now move the plane-iron cap up until it is about 1/32"

away from the cutting edge. See Figures 2 and 3 on the

following page. DO NOT DRAG THE PLANE-IRON CAP ACROSS

THE CUTTING EDGE.

5. Now pick up your lever cap and tighten the plane-iron

cap screw.

6. Check to see if the plane-iron cap is properly installed.

The picture below (Figure 4) shows poorly fitted and

properly fitted plane-iron caps. A properly fitted

plane-iron cap will prevent shaving from wedging under

it, piling up, and choking the plane.

1. Refer back to the picture of the plane at the beginning

of this unit. It will help you to assemble the plane

properly.

2. Pick up the plane with your left hand. Then pick up

the double-plane iron (1 and 2) and lay it on the frog

with the plane-iron cap facing UP. (The roller on the

lateral adjusting lever (9) must fit into the slot of the

plane iron and the Y adjusting lever (7) must fit into

the slot of the plane-iron cap.) (See Figure 5 below.)

Figure 5

3. Slip the lever cap under the lever-cap screw (5) and

press down the cam. (See Figure 6.) If the plane iron

is in the correct position, the cam will easily snap in

place. If the cam will not snap in place easily,

loosen the lever-cap screw slightly. If the plane iron

is not firmly held when the cam is in place, tighten

the lever-cap screw.

4. The lateral adjusting lever (9) must move easily. The

pressure of the lever cap should be just tight enough

to allow the depth and lateral movements of the plane

iron to be made easily. It should also be tight enough

to hold these adjustments in place.

5. Now have your instructor check you out at this point.

Instructor's Initials

Now you should be able to adjust your plane to cutting depth.

Follow the steps which are listed below.

1. Hold the plane in your left hand by its knob. Hold the

plane against a light background and sight along the bot-tom of the plane.

2. Turn the adjusting nut (8) until the cutting edge sticks

out about 1/32". The plane iron is pushed out when the

adjusting nut moves out toward the handle.

The plane iron is drawn in when the adjusting nut moves

in toward the frog.

3. When the blade projects (sticks out) about 1/32", you may

see that the blade may be higher on one side. You can

fix this by moving the lateral adjusting lever either to

the left or right until the blade shows evenly on bothsides. (See Figure 7 below.)

Figure 7(Knob, lever cap and plane-iron

cap removed to show how the lat-eral adjusting lever works.)

Page 30: A sample of student tasks and topic obiectives which were ... · Construction work includes not only residential, commercial, indus-trial, and public buildings but also roads, bridges,

4. A final check can be made by planing the surface of a

piece of stock. The blade should be adjusted so that

you will get a smooth, thin shaving when planing a

surface or an edge.

5. Have your instructor check your work up to this point.

Position B shows correct adjustment.

Another thing to remember is that you must keep the plane

flat on the stock when you are planing it. You must also

maintain an even pressure on the stock when you use the

plane.

As you use a plane, you may find that quite a bit of

friction develops between the stock and the sole of the

plane. You can reduce the friction by rubbing a piece of

paraffin on the sole.

a. Get the piece of stock which you have cut out in a previous unit--

(Unit 19). This is the stock which will eventually become the

sanding block.

The first thing that you must do now is to plane one surface

flat and smooth. To accomplish this, you will have to select

a proper plane) secure the stock, and plane the surface. The

surface will have to be checked with a square for straightness.

b. Now you must select the plane which you will use to smooth the

surface. What plane would you pick?

Why?

c. Adjust your plane to the proper depth.

d. Pick up the piece of stock and look it over carefully. Askyourself the following questions.

I. Does it have any defects?

2. What kind of stock is it?

3. Which way does the grain run?

Mark the direction of the grain with a pencil.

Sometimes it is pretty hard to tell the direction in which thegrain runs. One of the ways to tell is to take a couple of strokeswith the plane on the stock. If the plane lifts the grain as youare planing, you are going against,the grain. In this case, youwill have to reverse the piece. This will also indicate to you ifyou have adjusted the plane properly.

Be sure to place your bench stop in position to hold the pieceand prevent it from slipping. You may be able to hold it with thevise only, if the piece fits. (See the picture below.)

e. When you have selected your plane and have it properly adjusted,

position your piece of stock on the bench or in the vise. Ask

your instructor to check your work up to this point.

f. Look at the chart, "How to Use the Stanley Plane." You will see

the starting position, direction of the grain, the beginning, of the

stroke, and its ending. Notice how pressure is kept evenly on

the wood.

REMEMBERYOU MUST PLANE WITH THE GRAIN.

g. Take your first stroke with the plane. If the fibers of the wood

seem to lift leaving a pitted surface, it is an indication that

you are planing against the grain and the position of the stock

should be reversed.

h. Continue planing the surface of the board with slow, steady

strokes until you can see smooth lumber on the entire surface

area. When you reach this point, it is time to check for levelness.

There are two ways to do this. These are described below.

Method 1.

A. Get your square blade.

B. Position the blade on its edge as shown below.

C. Hold the square and the board towards the light. The

light will show through the low spots.

D. With your pencil, mark all the high spots which will have

to be planed off.

E. The surface can be checked completely by placing the blade

edge on the planed surface and then sliding the blade

across the full length, width, and diagonally across the

corners as shown below.

If you have a piece of graphite crayon, you can rub it on

the edge of the square blade. This will help you locate

the high spots much easier.

F. If the surface does not test true and the high spots are

marked, continue to plane until the surface is true and

no light appears under the square blade when you drag it

across the surface.

Method 2.

The second method for testing a flat surface is by using

the surface plate, which you can find on your bench.

A. Rub white chalk on the surface of the plate. (The plate

is flat and very smooth.)

Page 38: A sample of student tasks and topic obiectives which were ... · Construction work includes not only residential, commercial, indus-trial, and public buildings but also roads, bridges,

B. When the surface plate is chalked, lay the planed side

of your stock on the plate and rub the stock against the

plate with circular motions.

C. Lift the stock up and you will see where the chalk dust

shows all the high spots on the planed surface.

D. Using short strokes (if necessary), plane off the high

spots until the surface of your stock shows a thin layer

of chalk dust over the entire planed surface when you rub

it against the plate.

E. You can check the surface with a square blade to be sure

that the surface is flat.

i. When the stock is smooth and flat, lightly mark the surface

"WF" with your pencil. This surface will be a reference point

for determining other dimensions of the sanding block.

. In the model rack, you will find a demonstration model of the

Sanding Block (No. 2) which has been completed to this point. How

does your surface compare with the surface of the model? It should

look as good or better.

k. Take your work to your instructor so that he can check it.

I OBJECTIVE: I

To dress a piece of stock to thickness so that the surface is parallel tothe working surface and is flat and smooth.

I EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS REQUIRED: 1

1. Blueprint S-1, "The Sanding Block"2. Scratch Gage (Marking Gage)3. Pencil with a chisel point4. Try Square5. Hand Plane6. Measuring Rule7. Chalk and Surface Plate (optional)8. Sanding Block (stock with a W.F., W.E.

OVERVIEW:

, working end--cut to length)

In doing any woodworking job, it is necessary to cut and shape the piece orpieces to size. The size may be the whole job or part of a number of piecesused to complete the job. First, the piece or pieces are cut to a rough

size. You should allow at least 1/8 to 1/2 inch to the length and width.Generally, the rough thickness is determined by the thickness of stockavailable. This may be 1/4- to 1/2-inch thicker than the actual size of thepart or job. This allowance will enable you to trim any deformities in thestock. Then you can obtain the true, smooth, surface required in woodworking.The operation of taking off excess stock to obtain a desired size is calleddressing stock to size or dressing the stock. Another term often used ismilling the stock to size.

From your Units 21 and 22, /ou obtained a working face (W.F..) and a workingedge (W.E.) on your sanding block. Your next task is to dress your piece tothe required thickness, parallel to the working surface.

e. Set the plane for a very light cut. Check the surface with a

square or surface plate. vlane carefully any high spots that

still remain.

f. When you think your block is done accurately, compare it with

the learning aid sample in the learning aid cabinet (marked

sanding block). The quality and accuracy must be as good or

better. If it is, call your instructor over to your bench andhave him check it out.

SUGGESTIONLJ

Before you call your instructor, you can accurately find out howclose you are to having the stock parallel and accurate. Set a

pair of outside calipers to the required dimension. Slide the

calipers across the thickness at several places from the edges and

ends. The jaws or legs of the calipers must slide along the thick-

ness, just barely touching the surfaces. If the calipers slide tooloosely or bind, get another piece and try again (or plane down thehigh spots until the calipers fit properly). If the thickness is

within 1/32 inch of the dimension on the print, call your instructorto check your work.
