The Woodworking is an activity that you could easily make with the right instruments and the right guide.

But first we need to know what is all this about, we also name the woodwork “Carpentry”, let’s check a little more before we introduce to woodwork

Carpentry is the name of the trade and the workshop or place where both wood and its derivatives are worked, and whoever exercises it is called a carpenter. Its objective is to change the physical form of the raw material to create objects useful for human development, such as furniture for the home, door frames, moldings, toys, desks, bookstores and others.

Since the time of the Indian cultures, the wood has been working; since at that time the beginnings used it to make their tools of fighters. The carpentry is worked in solid state or processed; the solid state works with solid wood veneer and processing uses: slats, counters, veneers, agglomerates, MDF, etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The word "carpenter" is the English translation of "Carpentier", the ancient French word "Charpentier", which is derived from the Latin "artifex carpentrius". In British slang, a carpenter is referred to as a "chippie". In Australia, they are often called "tradies". One of the German words for the carpenter is "Zimmermann". In the United States, 98.5% of carpenters are men. In 1999, it was the fourth most male dominated occupation.

 

Carpenters usually work with pine, “jocha”, oak, poplar, spring maple, walnut, rosewood, ebony, okume and mahogany.

To work with the wood, the carpenter (Professional) must have at his disposal a series of manual and electric machinery and tools that will be useful in the work to be done; for example, among the hand tools to use are:

 

Sawmill.

Hammer.

Drill.

Brush.

Gouge.

Chisel.

Rule.

Squad.

Screws

Pencil

Among the electrical equipment to use are distinguished:

Sander

Circular saw

Router

Radial saw.

Jig Saw.

 

Among the machines most used by the carpenter are:

Tromp.

Lathe

Drill

Saw tape

Radial,

Circular

Excavator

Heater

Now, the carpenter also has to use smaller accessories to perform his works such as lacquer, varnish, paintbrush, glue, press C, sergeant, Azuela and nails. With the use of each of these tools and elements you will be able to terminate a successful carpentry work. Each of the tools used before has different uses and different dimensions.

Carpenters also work with many prefabricated products such as: interior fittings, windows, cabinets, construction paper, metal stud bolts, window doors and pits, hardwood floor blocks, frame / ceiling / floor ties, covering pebbles.

 

Ok, now we also need to know that there types of carpenter and types of woodworking so let’s check out this:

 

OCCUPATIONAL SPECIALTIES: Due to the wide variety of work on the market, some carpenters specialize in specific types of work such as rough or finished carpentry. However, in most areas carpenters often perform all kinds of carpentry.

 

FINISHING CARPINTERS: present and install molds, baseboards, door frames, doors, windows, wood panels, cabinets, hardwood floors, stairs, partitions (cubicles), and other interior and exterior arrangements.

 

ROUGH CARPENTERS: build rough wooden frames for buildings; install rough frames of windows and doors, partitions, secondary floors, and lining on walls and exterior ceilings. They also construct concrete forms, scaffolding, platforms, fences, and temporary shelters in the workplace.

 

MAINTENANCE CARPINTERS: build and repair structural woodwork and work with molding equipment, drawings, or instructions.

 

ACOUSTICAL CARPENTERS: mount the acoustic tiles to the walls and ceilings of buildings to reduce sound reflection and to decorate the rooms. They also install suspended ceilings.

 

 

 

 

A cabinetmaker is one who gives the termination to carpentry work, furniture manufacturing, fine carpentry, model building, instrument making, parquet, carpentry, or other carpentry work, where the joints are accurate and the margins of errors must be minimal.

A cabinetmaker is a carpenter who performs fine and detailed work, and specializes in the manufacture of:

 

Cabinets.

Chests of drawers.

Storage trunks.

Among other furniture.

 

Formwork carpenter: He creates what is the cimbra, an auxiliary structure that serves to support the weight of an arch, or other stone work, during the construction phase. In Japan, a Temple Carpenter (MiyaDaiku), performs the works of both an architect and a builder.

 

 

Carpenters specializing: in shipbuilding have maintenance methods and repair techniques for nautical needs.

 

 

Steel warships, as well as wooden warships, require specialized carpenters in the area, especially for emergency repairs in case of battle or storm damage.

 

A frame is a carpenter who builds structures, skeletons or frames of buildings. Techniques include framing, balloon framing or wooden frames, which can be poles, and beam or mortise and tenon frame.

 

Ok, now we already know what is Woodworking about and who made it, but now, we need to know how much types of Wood exist, and what we can do with that.

 

There is now an increasing trend towards the use of certified wood and sustainable forests due to increasing environmental awareness.

 

So, in furniture of home is tended to the use of solid wood and boards. The finishes range from natural or rustic to contrast with more refined finishes and achieve more cozy environments, less cold to lacquered wood with a variety of finishes, for all designs, more economical, easy to clean and resistant to external aggressions. The use of light colors is a constant to achieve the timelessness of the furniture.

 

Wood is a sustance found in the trunk of a tree. This material is obtained from the part of the trunk that is below the crust. For thousands of years, wood has been used as fuel and as building material, as it is obtained from trees and shrubs that have a fibrillar structure, so it is used for large areas such as construction.

 

 

Wood was one of the materials first used by man. Already in the Paleolithic used the hard wood for the manufacture of arms like axes, skewers, and the soft wood for sticks and poles. When the man began to work with metals, increased the possibilities of uses since these allowed their apogee and styles.

 

Numerous classifications of wood can be made. The structure of the wood is what determines the diversity of the trunks and their use.

 

 

Because of its hardness in relation to specific weight. In this respect the woods can be:

 

Hard. They are those from growing trees so they are more expensive, and because of their strength, they are often used in the making of quality furniture.

 

Here are examples of hardwoods:

 

• Oak: It is of yellowish brown color. It is one of the best woods that are known; very durable and durable. Used in quality furniture

 

• Walnut: It is one of the most noble and appreciated woods in the world. It is used in luxury furniture and decoration.

 

 

• Cherry: Your wood is very appreciated for the construction of furniture. It is very delicate because it is prone to suffer alterations and to the worm.

 

• Encina: It is dark in color. It has a great hardness and is difficult to work with. It is the wood used in the construction of brush boxes and planters.

 

• Olivo: It is used for artistic works and decoration, since its fibers have some very colorful drawings (especially those that are close to the root.) Castaño: is currently used in the construction of kitchen furniture doors. is strong and elastic.

 

• Elm: It is resistant to woodworm. Formerly used to build cars. Soft. They are those that come basically from conifers or from fast-growing trees. They are the most abundant and cheap.

 

Now, these are the types of softwood:

Poplar: Low resistance to moisture and woodworm. In Spain there are two species: the white poplar (with silver bark) and the black poplar, better known with the name of poplar.

 

Birch: A yellow or white-red, elastic, non-durable wood used in the manufacture of pipes, boxes, clogs, etc. Its bark is used to make footwear, baskets, boxes, etc.

 

Alder: Its wood is used in cabinetmaking, turning and carpentry, as well as in the manufacture of small objects. Tannins are obtained from its bark.

 

Alnus glutinosa: Its wood is used in cabinetmaking, turning and carpentry, as well as in the manufacture of small objects. Tannins are obtained from its bark.

 

Alnus incana: Its wood is soft and light, easy to crack. It is used in sizes, boxes and other objects of wood.

 

This are not the only types of wood that exist this is just an example so we can continue learning about this.

 

 

If we talk about trends in decoration facing this year 2017 we have to do it once again of wood and its combinations. It is an element with which to succeed, which is also sustainable and offers us wonderful benefits. In fact, this material is considered to possess an enormous elegance and style to be employed in the enclosures.

 

Although there have been times when there has been a greater preference for other types of materials such as PVC or aluminum, wood is again a trend due to the growing awareness of sustainability.

 

 

 

The benefits that the wood gives in relation to the insulation are enormous, however we speak of a material that needs a maintenance of periodic type so that it looks and is kept in the best conditions. As a reward we will say that if we carry out the maintenance of the wood we can last a lifetime.

 

Many times a good option in relation to the wooden windows or the wooden doors that we already have is the restoration. According to experts, what needs to be done is to carry out the verification of the state of health in which the wood is found and see if the areas that remain in outdoor exposure are in good condition. In addition, we must perform the verification of how the adjustment related to the leaves with respect to the frames takes place.

 

Constant practice is crucial in this type of manual labor trades. Many have cost me frustration and anger and even additional expenses not contemplated, but the balance has been generally positive. Many show beginner mistakes or failures I made, but I've been improving them over time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Where to start?

 

But, where to start in the carpentry? What machines are needed?

 

My suggestion is that you should start buying a guide and doing some carpentry and only after that start buying more equipment.

 

I do not mean that quite literally. But I think it's better if you buy just a few tools and start using them. As you find yourself comfortable with the ones you have, it becomes easier to understand what you will need. So you reduce the risk of buying a complete equipment of tools of workshop to later realize that this of the carpentry is not your thing.

 

Start by buying a few hand tools, a hammer, screwdrivers, nails, a few chisels, a hacksaw, a carpenter's square, some kind of workbench and some tightening sergeants.

 

Your first power tools should probably be a jigsaw and a drill. These are tools that are very useful in many tasks and not just in carpentry projects. You will not be able to do fine carpentry work, but they are enough to do a few projects with them in the basement or outside.

 

There are different qualities of tools available at different prices. Marketers will probably tell you to make good quality tools that last a lifetime. But the price difference between a cheap tool and a good one can be such that it is easy for a quality one to cost four times what a cheap one.

 

My advice is to get cheap tools first and use them until they break. Once they break, it's time to consider acquiring better ones. But unless you are a professional who uses the tools every day, cockroaches will probably last a long time.

 

A good tool to adquire later is some kind of
