Establishing Thickness and Length

|
|
GOAL: Steps 4 through 6 of the stock preparation process. Here, you'll learn the procedure and tool options for bringing a workpiece to final thickness, squaring one end and establishing its final length.
Preparing stock for a project can be accomplished with a variety of hand tools, machines and methods. How it is prepared is not critical; what is critical are the properties of the finished piece. It must exhibit both dimensional and geometrical accuracy - flat where it should be flat, parallel where it should be parallel and square where it should be square. Lesson 1 of this chapter reviewed the tasks of creating a face side, face edge and bringing a workpiece to width. This lesson will teach you the final three steps of stock preparation. |
