ENGLISH JARGON OF INTERIOR WOODWORKING SPECIALISTS: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
Posted: Wed Jun 06, 2018 1:50 pm
Hello once again I am writing my bachelor's dissertation but this time I have changed a little bit my topic
ENGLISH AND POLISH JARGON OF INTERIOR WOODWORKING SPECIALISTS: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS.
I would like to make posts with questions to you guys. It is always better to ask someone than reading millions of articles watching videos.
Today three questions:
1. I have found in a book called "The technique of Furniture making" by Ernest Joyce(page nr 100) a plane which looks like a router plane and it is called "Old Woman's Tooth" router. Can someone explain why it is called like this or maybe you have another name for that kind of tool?
2. In a book by Ernest Scott "Woodworking in Wood" there is a chapter with Tools. I have found something interesting the whole chapter is called "CRAMPS" and I know that in nowadays while you are gluing something you are using CLAMPS. Which one of these words do you use in your everyday life in the workshop?
3. Do you know any examples of "old school carpenters jargon"? I have a good example in Polish Jargon could you try to translate this to "old school" ?
“Boy, you are preparing these badges badly. First, align the ends and place the support pads so that you can see where you have to plane, then smooth the entire top with a scrub plane to make it straight, then smooth all the bumps with a block plane and then you can plane with jointer plane Along tree rings? “
Thank you for your answers and I invite you to the discussion
.
Ps. If this post is in wrong category or group please let me know sorry if it is.
