On MakingNg, Melissa January 2014 (has links)
Grasping the wooden handle of a dozukime saw with both hands, I make a rip-cut into a block of eastern white pine, leaving behind a 1/64-inch wide kerf. I am cutting a dovetail: a wood joint developed over five-thousand years ago by the hands of our ancestors. Even now, a well-fitted dovetail joint remains one of the strongest, most elegant ways to join wood. I knew nothing about traditional woodworking when I first picked up a hand-plane, but I was soon inspired by the richness of the craft: the quality of a hand-planed finish, the spirit of craftsmanship, and the nature of material. I was amazed by the wealth of knowledge embodied in craftwork. The tools and materials I encountered spoke to me; I learned to care for them and for my work. How would the things I make endure through time? How would the things I make affect others? In an era where materialism has come to represent a spiritless relationship to the things around us, traditions of craft can teach us how to imbue the human spirit in our work. After making a harvest table, four chairs, ninety-four earthenware pots, and a lamp, I reflect on the act of making as a means of discovery. Making affects our thinking and our approach to material and environment. Making can help us develop a craftsman???s capacity to listen, a great respect for material, and a desire to make better objects for posterity. Making is learning.

Účel designu u ručního nářadí / The purpose of design for hand toolsRemeš, David January 2018 (has links)
This thesis deals with the effect of the design on hand tools. In the first theoretical part of this thesis, individual manual operations carried out during manufacturing are being further analyzed. The next part then focuses on the individual aspects of the product design and its influence on the hand tools. Followed by the processing of achieved parameters in handwork. The experimental part of this thesis deals with adjustments of the tap wrench´s handles made for manual cutting of internal threads. The utilization of the material when selecting a semi-finished product from blanks as well as the evaluation of the manufacturing in this way itself are also closely described in this part.
