    Advantage of Wood Seasoning


    a) Harder, stronger and desirable wood

    • Natural or air seasoning
    • Artificial or kiln seasoning
    • Water seasoning
    • Electrical seasoning

    PRACTICAL NO. 1
    OBJECTIVE

    To make corner - lap joint using a wooden piece.

    MATERIAL REQUIRED

    Two wooden pieces of dimensions (45 X 35 X 150) mm.

    1. Try square
    2. Rip saw
    3. Iron jack plane
    4. Firmer chisel
    5. Marking gauge
    6. Rasp file

    PROCEDURE

    1. Hold the wooden pieces (300mm in length) firmly in the carpentry bench vice and pain its sides
    using iron jack plane, till it becomes uniformly flat on checking with try square.
    2. It is assumed that this plain side is the reference side and perpendicular to it checked with try
    square.
    3. Taking two sides as the reference side, marking is done using gauge to make the remaining two
    sides of regular dimensions.
    4. Cut 300mm wooden piece in two equal lengths of 150mm as required for lap joint, using rip saw.
    5. Marking is carried out for lap joint and remove the surplus portion from both the pieces with the
