Planning Boards

After Gluing Scrap any glue and plan both surfaces of the board using the planner.

Gluing Boards

Following ripping and crosscutting boards is gluing. Apply liberal amounts of glue, clamp every six to eight inches, and clean up excess glue.

After boards are ripped they are cross-cut using the radial arm saw to rough lengths.

Ripping Boards on the Table Saw

After edges are jointed boards can be ripped on the table saw.

Jointing Boards

First select the species of wood you are going to make the project out of. Select boards that are not warped, bowed, cracked, and twisted. Because material comes rough sawed edges and surfaces need to be planned and jointed. After selecting boards edges need to be jointed using the jointer. The jointer is used to square and straighten edges of boards so they can be ripped and glued.

Lesson Plan

Lesson Plan 

Name: Jonathan Scally Department: Technology Course: Woodworking 1 

Title: Veneer Edging 

Standards:  

Standard 19: Students will develop an understanding of and be able to select and use manufacturing technologies.

BM M: Materials have different qualities and may be classified as natural, synthetic, or mixed.

Standard 20: Students will develop an understanding of and be able to select and use construction technologies.

BM K: Structures are constructed using a variety of processes and procedures. 

BM N: Structures can include prefabricated materials.

Objectives: 

• Students will recall what veneer edging is and what are some different applications for it.


• Students will recognize that there are a variety of materials and processes for accomplishing manufacturing and construction tasks.


• Students will be able to apply a veneer edge to a piece of plywood or project.

Materials:  

• Iron 
• Roller for applying edge
• Plywood
• Veneer edging
• Laminate trimmer to trim excess 
• Disc sander/hand sand paper

Motivation:

Remind students that this process is being used today in industry and it is important to understand that new technologies are always changing the way construction and woodworking is done.

Procedure:

Introduction to lesson:

• Attendance 
• Reflect on information cover yesterday 
• Give motivation 

Lesson:

• Ask students if they have heard or been exposed to veneer edging.
• Demonstrate how to apply edging 
• Ask students to consider the pro’s and con’s of a technology like this.
• Ask how this might change the manufacturing and construction of wood products

Summary:

Ask student to summarize the process just demonstrated and allow students to ask questions or to give comments.

Assessment: 

Assessment is implementation of product and process into students project and informal assessment of classroom participation.
