    Bench vice They are used for precision work on the

    machine table like shaping, milling, drilling and


    grinding.
    Snips used to cut sheet metal and other tough webs.
    1. Straight hand shear Straight hand shear: It is used for general
    2. Universal hand shear purpose cutting, making straight cuts and
    3. Curved hand shear trimming away extra metal.
    Universal shear: Its blades are designed for
    universal cutting straight line or internal and
    external cutting of contours.
    Curved hand shear: It is used for cutting circular
    or irregular curved shapes ranging from 20 to
    35 cm
    Ball peen hammer The ball-peen hammer remains useful for many
    tasks, such as striking punches and chisels.
    Riveting hammer Riveting hammer is used for forming riveted
    heads.
    Planishing hammer Planishing hammer is used for removing small
    marks or indentations from the sheet metal job
    surface and to true the shape of the work
    Steel rule used in geometry, technical drawing, printing
    and engineering/building to measure distances
    and/or to rule straight lines.
    Calipers used to measure the distance between two
    1. Inside caliper opposing sides of an object. Jenny calliper is
    2. Outside caliper generally used to scribe a line a set distance
    3. Jenny caliper from the edge of a work piece. The inside
    calipers (a, b) are used to measure the internal
    size of an object. Outside calipers (c) are used
    to measure the external size of an object. In the
    metalworking field divider calipers (d) are used
    in the process of marking out suitable work
    pieces. A divider caliper is also used to measure
    a distance between two points on a map.
    Stakes Stakes are used to form the metal sheets into
    1. Beak horn stake various shapes.
    2. Funnel stake Beak horn is basically used for forming, riveting
    3. Half moon stake and seaming articles made of sheet metal part.
    4. Half moon stake Funnel stake is commonly used for planishing
    5. Bick iron tapered work and hand forming of funnels and
    6. Hatchet stake similar conical shapes of sheet metal.
    Half moon stake is basically used for throwing
    up edges of curved sheet metal work and for
    preliminary stages of wiring curved edges.
    Round bottom stake is commonly used for
    squaring up edges and setting up the bottom of
    cylindrical jobs made up of sheets.
    Bick iron stake is mainly used for forming taper
    handles, spouts and tubular work in general.
    Hatchet stake is generally used for making
    sharp bends, bending edges and forming boxes
    and pans of sheet metal by hand
    Groover used for offsetting an outside grooved seam,
    finally used to make the joint stronger and
    permanent.
    Scriber used in metal working to mark lines on work
    pieces, prior to machining. It is used instead of
    pencils or ink or lines, because the marks are
    hard to see, easily erased, and inaccurate due
    to their wide mark; scribe lines are thin and
    semi-permanent. It is used by drawing the
    point over the surface of the work piece to
    leave a shallow scratch on its surface.
    Tri-square used for marking and measuring a piece of
    wood. The square refers to the tool's primary
    use of measuring the accuracy of a right angle
    (90 degrees); to try a surface is to check its
    straightness or correspondence to an adjoining
    surface. Try square is sometimes spelled "tri
