Practical:
18
i)
Learners will demonstrate their
ability to layout and cut a variety of chamfers and stops on timbers using only
hand tools. This will be done safely and
precisely to within a 1/16th tolerance of predetermined lengths and
proportions.
19
ii)
Learners will demonstrate their
ability to layout and cut a variety of chamfer and stops on timbers using
portable power tools. This will be done
safely and precisely to within a 1/16th tolerance of predetermined
lengths and proportions. Appropriate PPE will be used at all times (no
exceptions). Note that learners will only demonstrate the use of tools that
they have been properly trained to use.

Theory:
54
i)
Learners will explain why
anyone in their right mind would possibly want to ruin an otherwise perfectly
good timber by distressing it with power-hewing tools to look like it had been
chewed by a pack of angry beavers.
55
Practical:
56
ii)
Learners will demonstrate one
safe and correct method for hand-planing 8ft long rough timbers smooth, to
within 1/16th tolerance of a finely scribed line running end to end,
and within 1/16th of wind.
57
iii)
Learners will demonstrate one
safe and correct method for power-planing 8ft long rough timbers smooth, to
within 1/16th tolerance of a finely scribed line running end to end,
and within 1/16th of wind.
58
iv)
In recognition of the fact that
some people (who may or may not be insane
but who are we to say) have appalling
taste, learners will demonstrate the practical application of a trained beaver
for the cutting of at least 2 ye-olde hewn surfaces on otherwise perfectly good
timbers, to within a 5 or 6 tolerance of a finely scribed line. Learners may
also blow-torch all surfaces and flog the timber ends with their belt if
desired. Correct PPE (blindfold and current tetanus shots) must be used at all
times.
