·  This unit of work is part of the school-based assessment of the student. As such it forms a compulsory component of this subject.

·  The Design & Research Folio and the associated Practical Project are to be submitted together for marking.

·  Students are to write their name in the space provided at the top of this page and clearly identify their practical project.

·  All written answers are to be neat and legible, in fine point blue or black pen.

·  All drawings are to be completed with a sharp 2H pencil. Coloured pencils may be used for emphasis.

·  Do not remove pages from this assessment booklet. Any additional pages must be secured to the booklet.

Section 1

Construction Details:

1.  Explain how the wood lathe works

1. When using the lathe press you must always wear a ______protection.

2. You must tie back long ______loose ______.

3. Before starting the machine:

- secure the piece you are turning in a between ______.

-  adjust the height of the ______rest, unit the tip of the cutting

tool rests along the centre axis.

-  rotate the work by hand to check there is suitable______

between the job and the tool rest.

4. Have the ______check he lathe before starting.

4. Stand back and start the machine

5. Apply the chisels and gouges ______but firmly to the work

moving it along the tool rest to shape the work.

6. When sanding work on the lathe ______the tool rest to

avoid catching your hand between the work and the tool rest.

7. When turning is complete, switch off the machine and make sure the job has

______turning before removing your work and ______the machine.

  1. Safety is the most important part of practical work. Your teacher will demonstrate the safe and efficient use of hand tools and machinery before you begin to use them and you will be required to undergo a safety test for all machines. Shade the circle that corresponds to the correct answer. Fill one circle only for each answer.

T = True F = False.

1.  You should always wear eye protection when using the wood lathe.
2.  Measurements should be taken while the lathe is running to ensure greater accuracy.
3.  When turning between centres the tailstock handwheel must be done up as tightly as possible.
4.  The lathe will not start if the belt guards are left open.
5.  You must have at least 20 mm between the tool rest and the work.
6.  The tool rest should be as close as possible to the work.
7.  You should wait until the work has stopped rotating before placing your hands anywhere near it.
8.  It is safe to reach across the lathe while it is on.
9.  Loose clothing and long hair should be restrained before using a lathe.
10.  The tool rest must be removed when sanding.
11.  Adjustments to the tool rest can safely be made while the lathe is on.
12.  Timber should be checked for defects and cracks before it is turned.
13.  The job should be spun by hand before switching the lathe on.
14.  You should switch the lathe off and inform your teacher if is making unusual noises while being used.
15.  Large jobs should be set to a low speed.
16.  Irregular or non-round pieces should be turned at a low speed.
17.  Unrestrained ties are unsafe to wear while using a lathe.
18.  All lathe work must stop if your teacher leaves the room.
19.  Two students can safely work on a lathe at the same time.

13.  Turning tools fall into two main categories. List the tools used for each of the major operations below and briefly explain how they work (in your own words). (pg 187)

Cutting Tools:
