Grinding Chisels and Plane Blades (Junior Cert Wood Technology): Flashcards

Rotating stone wheel for sharpening/shaping hard materials

Angled surface on tool edge formed by grinding

Process to sharpen cutting edge for increased precision

Initial angle ground on chisel/plane blade, around 25°

Excessive heat buildup affecting tool hardness

Approximately 25 degrees

Create primary bevel (25°) to prepare for honing

Produce 25° bevel on blades for further sharpening

Positioning, angle maintenance, pressure application

Protect eyes from sparks

Protect hands from sharp edges

Short interrupted sessions & water cooling

Use angle guides to maintain consistency
