What’s New
Let Me Know
Interview a carpenter in your locality. List down the tools he is using and the
uses of each tool. Then, ask this question: “Why did you choose carpentry as your
job?” Write the answers on your TLE notebook.
What is It
1.1 Describe carpentry materials and tools.
Carpentry Tools and Construction Materials
1. Rule.
Rules are either made of metal or
wood. The metal rule is made of
hardened and spring-tempered high
2
3

10. carbon steel. It is marked off in inches
and fractions of an inch.
1.1Metal rule has two straight edges.
Either side can be used to test if
wood is straight and flat.
1.2Zigzag rule. Wooden rules are
two to three feet long and have
joints so they can be folded up to
fit in the pocket. Rules are used
for measuring distances, testing
flat surfaces, and checking
straight.
1.3Push-pull rule or steel tape is
used to measure longer distances
available from 3 meters to 7.5
meters long.
2. Try Square. This tool is used for testing
if surface squares with another form a
square corner. It is also used for marking
out lines which must square with the edge
of wood.
3. Marking Knife. This knife has a steel
blade sharpened to a cutting edge held
firmly in place by a wooden handle. It is
used for marking off lines usually across
the grain of wood to be cut.
4. Marking Gauge. This tool is used to
mark lines along the grain of wood or to

11. indicate the desired width and thickness of
wood. The wood is held at an angle while
the gauge stock is pressed and tilted to let
the spur trail. The gauge is then moved
along the length of the wood so the spur
joint will cut a line as it goes along.
5. Divider. While a marking knife is used
for straight lines, a divider is used for
marking out curved lines such as circles
and parts of a circle joint. It is also used for
marking equal distances along a line. The
two legs are set to size from a rule. One
point is placed on the center mark, and the
divider swung around so that the other
point cuts a curve in the wood.
6. Sliding T-bevel. This tool, like the try
square, can be set at any angle. Its blade
is slotted and held in the sack by a screw.
If loosened, the blade can be moved
about. After it has been set to the required
angle, the screw is tightened. The bevel is
used for testing slopes of a beveled edge
and for making straight lines that are not at
right angles with the edge of the wood.
7. Claw hammer is the heavier type of
hammer with a claw used for driving and
pulling out nails.
8. Mallet. This tool is similar to a hammer
but its head and handle are made of
hardwood. It is used when hitting wooden-
5

12. handled tools such as chisel. It is also
used when assembling wood work.
9. Wooden smooth plane. This tool is
used for planing a piece of timber almost
to size. It is also used for removing the bulk
of waste from a piece of sawn timber.
10. Iron smooth plane. This tool is used
for smoothing wood after the jack or trying
plane has been used. It is smaller than the
jack plane but its cutting edge is ground
and sharpened straight like the try plane.
The smoothing plane should never be
used for general planing because its finely
set blade is intended only for smoothening
work.
11. Tang firmer chisel. This is used for
cutting and shaping woods. It has a blade
of hardened steel set on a steel shoulder
that has a steel tang and is held by a
wooden or plastic handle. The handle is
fitted with a metal ring called a ferrule.
12. Socket firm chisel. This tool functions
similarly as a tang firmer chisel. The upper
part of the socket chisel blade is shaped
like a hollow cone in which the handle is
set.
13. Gouges. These are used for hollowing
woods and cutting curved shapes. They
are like chisels but have a curved blade.
Their curves vary in shape from almost
6

13. straight to very round. A mallet is used for
greater control when gouging.
14. Spokeshaves. These are used for
planing curved edges. Grip the tool in both
hands, and work it away from you along
the edge of the wood following the grain.
15. Saws. There are two kinds of saws:
power saws (those run by electricity and
handsaws (those that are manually
operated). Handsaws are of various types.
15.1Crosscut saw is used for cutting
across the grain of the wood. The
teeth of this type are set alternatively
to the right and left so that the cut is
wider than the thickness of the saw
blade. It cuts both as a knife and a
chisel.
15.2 Ripsaw is used for cutting wood
along the grain. Its teeth are
sharpened at an angle to form points
with sharp cutting edges like a chisel.
15.3 Backsaw is a fine-toothed
cross-cut saw with a heavy metal
band across the back to hold the thin
blade firmly in place.
15.4Coping saw is used for sawing
curves out of thin wood. The narrow
7

14. blades are so designed to cut curved
shapes.
16. Rasp. The teeth of rasp are cut on the
principle of cutting wedges. The rasp is
used for roughing off surfaces. It is
described by length, shape, and cut, which
refer to the coarseness and shape of the
teeth.
17. Brace. This is used for holding bits
when boring and counter striking in wood.
Holes are made in wood with a brace bit.
18. Hand drill. This is used for drilling
holes up to ¼ of an inch deep. The drill bits
come in different sizes and are used with
boring holes in wood.
19. Screwdriver. The blade end of the
screwdriver should fit smugly into the slot
of the screw, otherwise, it may slip and
damage the screw head as well as the
surrounding wood.
19.1 Flat screw driver is used in driving
flathead screws.
8.2 Philip screw driver is used in
driving Philip head screws.
20. Bench. A bench is a working table with
bench vise and bench hook installed on it.
It is used in cutting and planing lumber.
8

15. Carpentry Materials
Carpentry is an area of industrial arts which makes use of a variety of materials.
These materials include lumber, plywood, nails, screws, other types of fasteners and
other kinds of hardware and accessories frequently used in making projects out of
wood.
1. Lumber is a kind of wood that is sawn for commercial purposes. It is
commonly used for structural and furniture purposes.
Classification of Lumber
1. 1Rough lumber – refers to undressed
lumber. It is commonly used in various
framing and scaffolding works.
1.2 S4S - refers to lumber dressed in four
sides.
21. Bench vise. The woodworker’s bench
vise holds lumber for easy working. The
vise is attached to the bench so that its two
top edges are flushed with the top of the
bench. The movable jaws may be fully
adjusted by turning the handle.
22. Bench hook. This is used to hold
small pieces of wood while sawing or
chiseling. It is made of a piece of wood
usually eight inches wide and nine inches
long. It has two square stoppers screwed
on opposite ends.
9

16. 2. Siding Wood Board is a type of material installed on the exterior part of a
building to protect the building from bad weather.
2.1V-cut refers to the shape of the
recesses visible on the face of a
panel. This cut is the result of an
angular beveled edge which creates a
visible and distinct V- shaped
recession in the face of the panel.
3. Molding is an embellishment in strip form, made of wood or other structural material
used to decorate or finish a surface such as the wall of a room or building or the surface
of a door or piece of furniture.
Kinds of Moldings
3.1Baseboard molding is a
wooden board covering the
lowest part of an interior wall. Its
purpose is to cover the joint
between the wall surface and the
floor.
3.2Corner molding is a wooden
board used to protect the edge of
the wall at an outside corner, or
to cover a joint on an inside
corner.
3.3Hand rail is a wooden rail
designed to be grasped by the
hand so as to provide stability or
support. Handrails are commonly
used while ascending or
10

17. descending stairways and
escalators in order to prevent
injurious falls. Handrails are
typically supported by posts or
mounted directly to walls.
3.4 Dentil molding is a type of wooden
trim that has blocks shaped like teeth. It
is composed of tooth-shaped blocks
of wood.
4 Floor boards are long planks making up part of a wooden floor in a building.
4.1 Tongue and grooves are wooden
planks in which adjacent boards are
joined by means of interlocking
ridges and grooves down their sides.
They are commonly used for
flooring.
4.2 Wood tiles are any products
manufactured from timber that are
designed for flooring, either
structural or aesthetic. Wood is a
common choice as a flooring
material and can come in various
styles, colors, cuts, and
arrangements.
5 Veneer products refer to thin slices of wood and sometimes bark, usually
thinner than 3 mm (1/8 inch), glued onto core panels such as plywood, particle
11

18. board or ply board to produce flat panels such as doors, tops and panels for
cabinets, parquet floors, ceiling and partition wall.
5.1 Plywood is a type of strong thin
wooden board consisting of two or
more layers glued and pressed
together with the direction of the
grain alternating and usually sold in
sheets of four by eight feet.
5.2 Ply board is a laminate made of
thin layers of wood.
6. Hardware and Accessories
1. Nails. The easiest way to join two pieces of wood is by fastening them with
nails. Nails are commonly made of steel and have large flat heads and pointed
ends. They come in different sizes and shapes. They are used for rough
carpentry and packing-case work.
Kinds of Nails
1.1Common wire nail has a much
larger head and diameter than
other nails. It is mostly used in
carpentry works.

nail that has a flat countersunk
head and a tapered point. It is used
for nailing various materials to
concrete or masonry.
1.4 Umbrella nail is used to fasten G.I.
corrugated sheet on wooden
purlins.
1.5 Flat head nails have flat, wide and
round heads. They are used to fix
sheet materials such as G. I. plain
sheet or plywood where the greater
surface area of the head holds the
sheet.
1.6 Brad nails are shorter than one inch
of common wire nails. They are thin
nails of the same thickness
throughout but tapering in width and
having a slight projection at the top
of one side instead of a head.
1.7 Spikes are nails measuring more
than six inches.
2 Screw is a short, slender, sharp-pointed metal pin with a raised helical thread
running around it and a slotted head. It is used to join things together by being
rotated so that they pierce on wood or other material and are held tightly in place.
Kinds of Screws
13

20. 2.1 Wood screw is a metal screw with a

a flat or rounded head.
2.3 Teks crews are also called self-tapping
fasteners or self-drilling screws. They
have a very small carving at the end of
their tips called a drill bit. The drill bit tip
creates a small hole by tapping before
driving it in.
2.4 Lag screw has a hexagonal head and
requires a wrench rather than a screw
driver to drive it in or unscrew it.
2.5 Cup screw features a hex drive at one
end and a cup-shaped indentation at
the other. It is commonly used set
screw head style. The thin edge of the
cup end digs into the contact surface
for high holding power.
2.6 Screw hook is a small hook with a
threaded shank for screwing into
woodwork or paneling.
6. Bolt is a long metal object that screws into a nut and is used to fasten things.
Kinds of Bolts
14

used with a nut for connecting metal parts
having a thread diameter of about 1/4
inch (6.4 mm) or more and a square or
hexagonal head for tightening by a
wrench.
2.2 Expansion bolt is a bolt that expands
when tightened and requires no thread
when inserted in the hole.
2.3 Stud bolt is a bolt with threads on
both ends designed to be screwed
permanently into a fixed part at one end
and to receive a nut on the other.
2.4 Carriage bolt is a large bolt with a
round head used chiefly for fixing wooden
panels to masonry or to one another.
6. Accessories
2.1 Hinge is used to fasten two pieces of
wood that are movable like window
panels, doors, cabinets, trunks, chest and
boxes.
2.2 Door knob is a mechanism used to
open or close a door. It has a bolt or
spindle running through it that sits just
above a cylinder to which a spindle is
15

22. connected. Turning the knob pulls the
cylinder into the direction of the turn.
2.3 Barrel bolt is a rod-shaped bolt used
for fastening a door or the like. It is
attached to one side of the door at the
edge and sliding into a socket on the
frame of the opening.
2.4 Hasp is a slotted hinged metal plate
that forms part of a fastening for a door or
lid and is fitted over a metal loop and
secured by a pin or padlock.
2.6 Cabinet handles are may be made
of metal, glass or wood. They are
fastened to doors and drawers of
tables.
2.7 Drawer slide is a kind of accessories
that is fixed to the side of the drawer
and the carcass of the drawer unit.
The movement which is in and out is
facilitated by ball bearing, ensuring
that movement is smooth and
noiseless.
2.8 Mounting bracket is mounted on
the wall vertically. Its horizontal arm
is projecting outward for another
element to be attached on top of it.
