In a few minutes if you are reading this article, thousands of tons of wonderful building materials will appear on the ground. Although it has great strength, it is generally very light. It's cheap to buy. It is easily accessible to almost everyone in the world. Your appearance is absolutely stunning. Yes, the world's forests still offer an inexhaustible supply of wood.
How was such a strong, light, economical, affordable and beautiful material designed? It was the product of our creator. Wood was really meant for people meant to be used. Can you imagine the beautiful colors and grain of walnut, mahogany, oak or maple? Or do you smell freshly cut pine or aromatic cedar?
Some Simple Safety Facts
Simple non-power hand tools seem safe enough. Common tools such as knives, wood chisels, hand saws and hammers can also be used dangerously. For example, a young carpenter tried to pull a tool from a wooden handle and drove the right claw of his hammer into the wood. When it wasn't broken, he took another hammer and rammed the first one into the woods, hitting him in the face. Results? A strong blow, severe pain in the nose and a lot of bleeding. It hit both heads of the hammer and caused a "steel explosion". A piece of steel hit him in the nose an inch from his eye, as if he had been shot by a pistol.
Therefore, follow these safety precautions: Steel hammers should never be struck face to face. Also wear safety glasses when driving nails into hardened concrete.
Another young man cut his eyes with a long, thin screwdriver as he worked. Therefore, care should be taken to keep your face a safe distance from the tools you are working with.
When using sharp cutting tools like wood chisels or hand knives, the main rule is to always cut away from you. This rule is not easy to remember when a person is concentrating on cutting a piece of wood, but it can prevent very serious accidents.
To illustrate, a pad doesn't look particularly dangerous. However, a worker has almost permanently lost part of their hand during use. He squeezed as the dough slid off and struck his other hand so low that the tendons were cut. A block of wood can be tied to a workbench and used as a "stopper" to keep the wood in motion when using chisels or knives. You can also hold the wood by hand, but always keep your cutting hands away from your body and only cut in the opposite direction towards you.
When cutting metal with a saw, it is best to use a saw with a handle that completely covers your hand. If the blade breaks, your hand is better protected than the open weapon. When it comes to buying saws, screwdrivers, pliers, hammers, and other tools for home use, it is far better to buy good quality tools. Not only do they provide better service and are cheaper in the long run, but most importantly, they are more secure.
Safe use of power tools
Power tools are widely used for woodworking. It is very important to think carefully and handle them very carefully as they can cause serious injury. Hold a ruler (a straight, narrow board) near the line you want to cut, then slide the chain saw base to ensure a safe cut as the saw will not get stuck. When the saw stops, it comes back to you in what is called a “kickback”. In general, it is good to hold the saw with both hands. Keep what you cut in a stable and secure position and always maintain a good position. The operator of an electric hand saw should always remain in position so that he can maintain control of the saw if the saw reacts. One of the keys to using power tools safely is: Always think about what can happen before it happens.
Sometimes a larger woodworking machine such as a table saw is used. This fine machine can make large cuts safely and quickly. It is not the most devastating of the major woodworking machines, but it is one of the most common. Again, keeping the blade sharp is a very important safety step.The few minutes it takes to sharpen are worth it. In most of the world, machines of this type must be equipped with a blade guard. It is an excellent protection.
A basic principle to keep in mind when using the table saw is to constantly monitor your hands when using the machine. Make sure the floor is kept clean so that it does not slip. The biggest danger of using table saws comes from "adversity". Therefore, never place your hands in a position that pulls them against the blade if the wood bounces off you. This means that you should not place your hands on the part of the saw table that is on the side of the saw blade away from the operator (the back of the saw). The saw blade should be kept approximately 6 mm above the material to be cut. Keeping the blade low minimizes the risk of personal injury.
"Barley" refers to wood fibers, which can be represented as long and narrow and are generally in the same direction as the length of a board. To "tear" a plate means to cut it in the same direction as the grain or grain. To "cross" means to cut fibers or grains. If you wear (cut a plate longitudinally) when passing the material through the saw, your eyes should be focused where you can see your hands, the saw blade (covered by the cover) and the guide. (The guide is the locking metal ruler against which the wood passes through the saw. This is called a cutting guide. Another guide, called an oblique guide, slides into a groove in the table saw and is used for cross-section.)
When you pass the wood through the saw, it is important that you not only look at your hands and the saw blade but also to keep your eyes mainly along the cutting guide. By making sure that the wood does not come loose from the fence, you protect yourself from bouncing. Some people are used to making freehand cuts. In this case, the operator does not use the cutting guide or the cutting guide as support, but instead places the wood on the table and the guide on the blade and holds it only with his hands. Never give in to the temptation to do this. Heels are very common in this type of insert. Rather than trying to cut freehand on a table saw, consider using a band saw or an electric jigsaw to do the sawing. The few seconds saved with clear cut are not worth the lost time and damage that occurred in an accident. Do not use the cutting guide and the detachable guide at the same time, as the wood may get stuck. You must also use it, but the material should not be cut on a table saw without using a fence to stabilize it.
What should you do if you need to make a small incision to remove the cover from the table saw? Use a wooden pusher so that your hand does not have to come close to the knife.
Another good safety idea: do not use high speed equipment if you are very tired. Most accidents occur at the end of the day, when workers are tired. Never give in to the temptation to hurry.
So do not try to cut boards that are too crooked or crooked on a table saw, as they almost always get stuck and pop out. First, they must be straightened into a joint. It is strongly recommended that you never come face to face with the rotating saw blade. If a knot comes out of the wood, it can throw it over 100 miles per hour! A little to the right or left of the saw blade. And it's a good idea to wear goggles.
Other useful safety information
Here are a few other website security ideas. When using hand drills, make sure you are not in the water unless you are using rubber gloves and waterproof rubber boots. Otherwise, you may receive an electric shock if the cables are shorted. If using a drill, hold the material to be drilled or a stop block to protect it. This will prevent the pressure from taking the coin out of your hand and hitting you. Never use an electric bicycle without safety glasses and goggles. More than one worker sustained permanent eye injuries when a small piece of metal hit his eye. The wheel can also break and hit your face.
Women generally do not use carpentry equipment at home. But sometimes women use power tools, and when they do, they must follow these safety rules as well.
Parents should provide their children with good instruction on how to use hand tools and power tools safely. School education classes are as good as homework from several excellent safe wood books.
It is important for a person who enjoys working with wood to develop good habits with their tools. One day, your mind may wander for a while as you work. So without thinking, your good habit will take over and you will automatically take a sure step without putting your hand in the wrong position. So think about safe work habits. Always let them follow you and enjoy safe carpentry.
The opportunities to do things with wood now and in the future are good. However, we will take care to respect the safety precautions related to this type of work.
