1. Saws
   Hammer
2. Hearing protection
   Sand paper

Essentials for personal protective equipment include hearing protection, eye protection, dust mask, fire extinguisher and a first-aid kit.

1. Wait 24 hours before applying the next coat.
   Allow air around all areas where finish is applied.
2. Leave your work undisturbed in a constant temperature.
   All of the above.

All of these instructions should have been learned in wood shop, as well as the facts that cold temperatures can prolong drying time, and humid heat can make the finish have an uneven texture.

1. Protractor
   Protractor and a square edge.
2. Protractor, square edge, and a 45 degree edge.
   Protractor, square edge, 45-degree edge and rafter/stair calculations.

Besides all of the above, this useful tool also has some thickness to it, so it can easily be used as a saw guide.

1. Clamps
   Measuring tape
2. Band-aids from the first-aid kit
   Hot glue gun

Hot glue guns weren't invented yet, so your best bet was clamps to hold two pieces of wood together securely.

1. False advertising!
   The store wants to make more of a profit.
2. Trick question! It's actually bigger.
   Wood shrinks after losing its moisture.

When the wood is kiln dried, it shrinks and warps after losing moisture. So the mills then process the wood through a plane to smooth down the surfaces and clean up the edges. You get a straight and smooth board, at the expense of the stated size.

1. Tying back long hair
   Removing jewelry
2. Tucking in or rolling up loose clothing
   All of the above

One of the first lessons you learned in any shop class was "Safety First." It was the directive back then, and it still is today.

1. It's a tool used to sharpen a blade.
   The thickness of the blade
2. A type of bit used in a drill
   A type of screwdriver

To make sure you are cutting to the right measurement, you'll need to calculate the amount of blade kerf. To do so, simply measure the thickness of the blade teeth to gauge the amount.

1. A) Measure twice.
   B) Mark three sides with the measured cut lines in pencil.
2. C) Use a screwdriver to mark the cut lines.
   D) A & B

Cut lines will help ensure you have a nice straight cut, especially when the cut lines are in three-dimensions. Remember to calculate the blade kerf, and to cut once, measure twice.

1. Use a mitre box and a handsaw.
   Just eyeball it
2. Use duct tape instead of pencil lines for a straighter edge.
   Ask your teacher to do it.

Although the others are possibilities. The best way to learn to make a good cut, is to use a mitre box with your handsaw. It will keep things nice and straight if the marking technique doesn't work for you.

1. It keeps dogs in the yard.
   A tool that is used to attach wood pieces together.
2. A straight piece of wood used to guide the plate of the circular saw.
   A type of pliers

A fence is a straight piece of wood used to guide the plate of the circular saw. To set up a fence, just measure the distance from the teeth of the saw blade to the edge of the plate. Then set the fence to this distance away from your cut.

1. It's when you use a screwdriver to stab an area of the wood.
   It's a cut that starts in the middle of the board.
2. It's a cut used to create a folded board.
   It's the line created with a plum bob.

A plunge cut is where a cut starts in the middle of the board as opposed to the ends. A circular saw is used but the back end is lifted to create the cut.

1. It's that ragged edge you get when cutting wood.
   It's something you need to sharpen your blade
2. It's what happens when you have planed your wood perfectly.
   Tearout is what fits in the a drill hole

Tearout occurs only on one side of your work piece: the side where the blade exits the cut. Consider flipping your wood to have the best side facing out.

1. When making a religious wood sculpture
   When you need to stand on a board for height
2. To support the wood fibers in the board above it, so you don't get tearout
   The board used for measuring, but not for cutting

The sacrificial board supports the wood fibers on the board you are cutting as the saw exits and allows a clean cut all the way through.

1. Make a scoring cut.
   Switch to a blade that has more teeth.
2. Cut slowly.
   All of the above

Tearout is the rough, jagged edges that result from cutting through thin veneers. Prevent tearout by making a shallow cut along your cut line or scoring it, to make a groove in the wood. You can also cut more slowly with a saw that has more teeth.

1. Yes
   No, on the right side only
2. No, on the left side only
   No, but choose which side you want to cut.

It doesn't matter which side you choose, but you should always cut to one side of your marked line to account for blade kerf.

1. Pliable Very Adhesive
   Polyvinyl Acetate
2. Postpone Very Active
   None of the above

PVA glue is best known as wood glue, white glue, carpenter's glue, school glue, and Elmer's glue. It is an aliphatic rubbery synthetic polymer.

1. End grain
   Straight grain
2. They are similar in strength.
   They are both weak.

Straight-grain glue-ups are stronger. End-grain glue-ups are much weaker, and require a special joint or mechanical fastener to make a good connection.

1. A) Almost all the glue seeps out.
   B) The wood has indents from the clamps.
2. C) The wood squeaks under the force of the clamps.
   D) A & B

Squeezing a glue-up too tightly will remove all the glue and prevent adhesion. Also, very tight clamping can cause indents to the wood.

1. Moisture can cause the wood to swell and deform.
   Water can splash around and make a big mess.
2. PVA is not water soluble.
   None of the above

One of the best methods to remove excess glue from your work piece is to rub sawdust all over the joint. The sawdust will mix with the glue and clump together, making cleanup a breeze.

1. The same speed
   Slower for drilling, faster to drive screws
2. Faster for drilling, slower to drive screws
   None of the above

For best results, use a higher speed for drilling and a lower speed to drive screws.

1. True
   False
2. It depends on the drill.
   It depends on the wood.

A pilot hole is made with a smaller drill bit than your final size. This smaller hole will help guide the larger bit for the final size of the opening,

1. A) Use a pilot hole.
   B) Use a piece of wood with a squared end as a guide.
2. C) Reverse drilling
   D) A & B

A steady and confident hand helps when trying to drill a straight hole, but for beginners, using a pilot hole and having a wood piece to guide your drill can help.

1. Bob
   George
2. Chuck
   Larry

It's called the chuck, and that's where you can put an assortment of drill bits to handle a variety of drilling needs on your project.

1. Helical
   Spade
2. Slot
   Countersink

A countersink drill bit is used to create a conical hole in the wood so when a screw is placed inside the hole, it will sit flush with the surface of the surrounding wood.

1. Phillips
   Slot
2. Helical
   Spade

A spade is used to drill large-diameter holes. The drill bit is shaped like a spade shovel, but has a point to keep the bit centered.

1. Hole Saw
   Forstner
2. Helical
   Slot

The Forstner is perfect for receiving dowels, because it creates flat-bottom holes. The Forstner comes in variety of sizes.

1. 40-50 Grit
   60-80 Grit
2. 80-120 Grit
   150-220 Grit

Sandpaper comes in different coarseness levels, called grit. Coarse-grit sandpaper is used to quickly remove lots of material, while fine-grit sandpaper is used to make a mostly smooth surface even smoother.

1. Yes
   No
2. Depends on the sand paper
   I don't know.

Different wood types have different densities and will sand down at different rates. Always use caution when sanding mixed wood.

1. Yes
   No
2. Depends on the wood

Microgrits are 240 grit and higher, and only suitable for very fine sanding. Spend the few extra minutes with the coarse grit before moving up to the next grit, it will make a difference in the overall look of your projects.

1. It flattens a bumpy piece of wood.
   It reduces the thickness of a piece of wood.
2. It provide a smooth surface on the piece of wood.
   All of the above.

A hand plane is a tool for shaping wood that uses your muscle power to force the cutting blade over the wood surface. Generally, all planes are used to reduce the thickness of, flatten and smooth the surface of a piece of lumber or timber.

1. They are both types of hand planes.
   They are both types of saws.
2. They are both types of drill bits.
   They are both angled cuts.

These are both angled cuts. You can also use glue and sawdust to act as a filler for small gaps between the beveled pieces or the mitered pieces for a smoother finished piece.

1. A) Rubber gloves
   B) Eye protection
2. C) Hearing protection
   D) A & B

Safety is always a priority no matter what stage you are in your woodworking project. Keep splatter away from your eyes by wearing eye protection and always use rubber gloves when handling stains and solvents.

1. Shellac
   Paint
2. Stain
   All of the above

The choice is yours. Unless your woodworking class didn't have the funds for finishing touches, you can choose between shellac, paint and stain to complete your project.

1. It takes longer to dry, even when the top feels dry.
   It dries immediately.
2. It has a reflective glow.
   It has a rough surface.

A cured finish is not the same as a dried finish. Cured finishes can continue to do so even after the top of the finish seems dry.

1. A) Beeswax
   B) Mineral Oil
2. C) Honey
   D) A & B

If you go for a natural finish, be mindful that these options will require frequent reapplication in order to keep protecting your work, as they will rub off over time and with use.
