Woodworking Tools

Posted on September 1st, 2010 in Allen Wrench Set by allenwrenchset  Tagged

To become a successful woodworker you must fill your work stations with various Woodworking Tools in order to better complete the projects you undergo. In this post I will discuss the various Woodworking Tools needed to complete a basic workstation. To start off I will list the Woodworking Tools needed and below I will better explain the need for each.

A basic workstation should consist of the following:

1.) Hammers

a: A Carpenter-style hammer (preferably with a claw)

b: A smaller style of hammer or one which has a light weight (preferably a ball peen)

c: A rubber mallet

These three hammers are vital in order to complete almost any woodworking plan as these items each provide the ability to hammer most nails, pins, etc. on any surface (delicate or able to take abuse) The difference in weight for the first two hammers allow for the hammering in various sized nails; the carpenter-style hammer may be able to hammer in most nails but may cause small pins to bend and break. Also, having two sets of hammers with two different ends will allow for a greater range in projects i.e. even though the ball end is rarely needed it can come in handy for those rare occasions. The rubber mallet is a good addition to your Woodworking Tools as this will allow for gentle strikes which will not dent or crack delicate, wood surfaces.

2.) Screw Drivers

Although you will need a drill most projects require the need to place screws in tight places where a power drill just wont fit. It is necessary to have various sized screw drivers for when you need to get in to those tight spots; it would also be wise to purchase standard and Phillips to better handle and screw type.

3.) Wrench

It would be wise to purchase even a small wrench set whereas many woodworking plans require you bolt as oppose to screw which provides a stronger hold in some situations. It would also be wise to even purchase a bolt driver as well as a small Allen Wrench set.

4.) Drill (preferably cordless and reversible)

A drill can come in handy for most projects in which a lot of drilling is required. I would recommend having a cordless drill with two batteries so when drilling for long periods of time you and charge one battery while using the other and interchange the two; a cordless drill is also useful as it doesn’t constrain you to one spot. It would be best to purchase a reversible drill unless you want to clean up any mistakes with a plain old screw driver. As well as the drill itself you should make sure to purchase an adapter as well as a bit set.

5.) Saw

a: Hand Saw

b: Power Saw

c: Table Saw

d: Radial Arm Saw

Now with a saw the choice is up to you and your budget; you can purchase a regular hand saw and, or a power saw, both in which you need to purchase clamps and or vises to provide an even cut; however, if you feel like spending a couple more dollars (and if you plan to undergo many projects), you can invest in a table saw with movable clamps or even a radial arm saw; these two saws allow for a more precise cut for the larger projects you undergo.

6.) Sanders

a: Belt Sander

b: Hand-Held Sanders

c: Sanding Block

Belt sanders can help make short work of those big projects while hand-held sanders can help with the smaller ones; however, whatever sander you chose for your choice of woodworking plans you can always use a good quality sanding block for finishing touches.

7.) Work Bench

The work bench is the hub of all your projects. You should pick a bench that suits your needs as well as leaves room for you to work around.

Now all these tools are only the basics you will eventually need to buy more tools when the need comes around, but this should get you started on your Woodworking Tool [http://woodworking---tools.blogspot.com] collection.

Highland Sportwing 2 Bike Rack Review – etrailer.com

Posted on August 30th, 2010 in Allen Wrench Set by allenwrenchset  Tagged , , ,

www.etrailer.comVideos are provided as a guide only. Refer to manufacturer installation instructions and specs for complete information. Today we are going to show you part number 5801200 from Highland. This is their Sportwing two-bike rack. This will fit 1-1/4 and 2- inch receiver hitches. We will go ahead and install this in a 2-inch receiver hitch and show you how it works. It is pretty simple. It does use two pieces of metal as a bushing to install in 2-inch receiver hitches. If you use 1-1/4 inch, you do not need the bushings. Again, we will show you how it goes together. We will use these two pieces here, that is going to be like a bushing, for a 2-inch receiver hitch. Basically, you just line them up together, like so. And you can orient these either way, depending on the depth of your hitch. So it is not a hard and fast rule to have them a certain orientation. And basically, you just line them up as best you can. Kind of grab them by the edge here, and then you can just go ahead and install it in the hitch. Put our pieces together, grab the ends, and install it in your hitch. And it is going to be loose for now. Install your anti-sway bolt. Take your flat washer and your lock nut – and it is a nylon lock nut – and just go ahead and tighten it down. The bicycle rack does come with the tool for the Allen head but you do need a separate wrench for the nut itself. And we use a 16-mm wrench on this nut. All right, and essentially what this does is that the bolt pulls

Gig Tips For Success

Posted on August 25th, 2010 in Allen Wrench Set by allenwrenchset  Tagged

Whether you’re in a new band just starting out or an experienced musician familiar with the scene, you will always take something away from every gig you play. If could be something that didn’t go as planned that you will know not to try at the next gig, something that was a huge crowd pleaser that will definitely make a reappearance, or something as simple as your own personal set of rituals that gets you and your band ready for each show.

Below are a number of helpful tips and suggestions to keep in mind at your next gig. Whether you play the guitar or the violin, these are all good general things for any musician to know, and could also help your next big show to run a little bit smoother.
Music Stand: This is for those of us that have set lists and key structures written out. The music stand is better than picking all your guitar tabs and sheet music up of the floor after they fall off of your amp.
Instrument stand: I can’t even count the times that my guitarist kept forgetting his, he’d prop up his electric guitar and I would watch it fall across the amp after just a few minutes…oh well, save your own instrument. If you want to avoid potential costly damage, be sure to invest in a sturdy instrument stand.
Ear plugs: For obvious reasons, ear plugs are a necessity for anyone that plays an excessively loud instrument such as an electric guitar, bass guitars or the drums, as well as anyone in close proximity to any such instrument on stage.
At the Gig: Don’t drink excessively or dope up. It shows in your playing and your professionalism or lack thereof.
Practice: Be courteous. Send a flier to the neighbors letting them know what time and when you practice … so if there is a problem they don’t call the cops first, they call you.
Band Politics: The band sits at a round table – no egos, everyone gets a say – democracy – discuss your goals, tunings, who knows what, song dynamics, etc. A happy band is a successful band.
Bring a Towel (or five): To sop up the spilled beer on your amp that your guitarist denies he did. This will also help to keep the stage cleaner and safer for everyone in the band.
Cable: Loop your cable through your amp handle and your strap so it doesn’t fall out.
Guitar Picks: Different gauges for anyone in your band who uses one.
Spare Cords and Cables: Oh yeah it worked yesterday why doesn’t it work today? BTW, wrap your cords when you are done – the copper wire has a memory.
Spare Microphones: If you sing it is always good to have a back up. There is nothing like watching, in slow motion, a microphone hitting the ground and splitting into pieces.
Tuner: Guaranteed your guitarist thinks he’s in tune and everybody else is out.
Extra Batteries: For the tuner (which proves your guitarist wrong) or effects pedals.
Extra bass guitar and guitar strings: Obviously for yourself but even a set of guitar strings. Guaranteed when a guitar string breaks, it’s always the high E … and it’s on a Sunday and the music store is closed and the gig is in an hour.
Drum Key: Drummer arrives and can’t tune his set, or can’t put a new skin on.
Power Strip/Surge Protector: For some reason, clubs always have problems with their power, go figure – too many surges or blown circuit breakers than I care to remember.
Screwdriver: To get into your instrument or amp if there are any problems.
Allen Wrenches: A must have if you want or do any instrument adjustments.
Tubes: For all of you oldies out there.
Fuses: GK amps especially.
Pen/Paper: Whether for a song idea that pops into your head mid-show, or just any random idea you happen to think of, a pen a paper always seen to come in handy.
Crazy Glue: For your fingers or your guitarist’s mouth.
Duct Tape: Repairs anything … also for guitarist … oh yeah broken drum skins.
Duffel Bag: To carry everything you are secretly supplying.
Spare Cloths: For yourself, not the kinky kind but something that is comfortable for either relaxing in before/after the show, or to change into should you or someone else have an accident with a drink.

Take every suggestion on this list to heart, and you are good to go for your next gig. I know you will feel like a walking hardware store, but trust me you will thank me in the end.

One final tip, don’t tell your fellow band members all that you have. Otherwise, they will always rely on you every time to be there personal supplier. The purpose of having all of this equipment on hand is to be there to save the day … for yourself and others, but most importantly to bring a sense of professionalism to your craft. Rock on!

Using Hand Tools in Woodworking

Posted on August 22nd, 2010 in Allen Wrench Set by allenwrenchset  Tagged

Most people think “power tools” when they think of woodworking, but hand tools are also important for woodworking. If you are just starting out in woodworking, you want to make sure you get the right tools, and not spend a lot on unnecessary items.

You will need a number of hand tools to properly shape wood:

Clamps-It is a good idea to have a variety of sizes, but they do not cost much, and they last a long time, so used ones will serve as well as new ones.

Bench chisels-Get about 6 of these, ranging from one quarter of an inch to one inch.

Wire brushes-Good, stiff ones

Saws-At least a back saw, a tenon and a dovetail saw. They get a lot of use, so if you buy them used, make sure the teeth are not damaged, but you can have the sharpened.

Files-Start with a ten inch bastard mill file; you can add others later.

Hammer-A good quality 16 ounce hammer.

Mallet-Needed for driving chisels

Allen wrenches-Various sizes

Screwdrivers-A set of various sizes in both Phillips head and flat head.

Awls-Marking and Scratching

Pliers-Channel lock and Needle nose

Scrapers-A paint scraper and a hand scraper

Miscellaneous-T bevel, tape measure, steel ruler, level, putty knife, utility knife and protractor

The ideal way to set up a woodworking shop is to buy a small quantity of good quality tools rather than a lot of cheap hand tools. You’ll only end up paying more in the long run if you buy cheap tools, since they will have to be replaced often. Brand names to look for are Armstrong, Stanley and Snap On.

You can buy used tools if you look for ones in good condition. There are many antique or German made hand tools on sale. Hand tools last longer than power tools, since they are no mechanical parts to cause problems, so older ones are not a problem. Older hand tools are also frequently of better quality than newer ones.

Many hand tools can be found at yard or garage sales, but you may have to search a lot to get everything you need. Check the newspapers for ones that are offering tools (sellers frequently mention the types of merchandise they have)and visit as many yard sales as you can to build your collection.

Another excellent source for used hand tools is flea markets. Since there are so many more tables, you can cover a lot more ground than you can at garage or yard sales. Just remember that flea market merchants are used to haggling over price, so don’t pay the first price they quote, you will probably be paying too much.

At both yard sales and flea markets, you can get a better bargain if you wait till the end of the day, since the sellers may then be happy just to get rid of their stuff. Another hint is that if someone is selling a number of tools, they may be willing to give you a quantity discount.
