72
Q

application of a round file

A

is it used for filing out holes

73
Q

explain the process of cross filing

A

Cross filing involves securing the metalwork piece firmly, choosing an appropriate file, and holding it perpendicular to the work surface while applying pressure. The file is then moved diagonally across the metal in one direction, ensuring consistent strokes until the file loses its bite. To maintain evenness, the filing direction is alternated diagonally in the opposite direction. Regular checks for a smooth, levelled surface are made by running a hand or a straight edge across it. Once the desired levelness is achieved, finishing touches using finer abrasives or files help smoothen the surface further, resulting in a flat and uniform finish on the metal.

74
Q

explain the process of draw filing

A

Draw filing is a metalworking technique used to refine surfaces to a high level of smoothness and flatness. In this process, a file, often a single-cut mill file, is used with the workpiece firmly secured. The file is positioned at an angle, typically around 15-30 degrees to the work surface, and pulled lengthwise with long, steady strokes. This action removes small imperfections left from previous filing processes, creating a finer and more polished surface. The file is lifted at the end of each stroke and returned to the starting position to maintain a consistent filing pattern. Draw filing continues until the desired level of smoothness and flatness is achieved, resulting in a refined and even surface on the metal.
