This tool is a(n) __________.
outside micrometer |
|
outside caliper |
|
inside caliper |
|
inside micrometer |
Micrometers provide accuracy to the thousandths of an inch and come in outside and inside varieties. An outside micrometer is used to measure outside thickness, such as the diameter of a bolt, while an inside micrometer is used to measure the inside dimension of an object, such as the diameter of the hole of a nut or the width of a channel.
Which of the following statements about drill bits is not true?
drill bit size maxes out at ¼" for woodworking |
|
drill bits are primarily left-handed |
|
drill bits are primarily right-handed |
|
drill bit size maxes out at ½" for metalworking |
Drill bits remove material to create holes. They come in a variety of sizes, maxing out at ¼" for woodworking and ½" for metalworking. The majority of drill bits are right-handed which means they cut while rotating in a clockwise direction.
This tool is a(n) __________.
vernier caliper |
|
inside caliper |
|
outside caliper |
|
inside micrometer |
Calipers are similar to micrometers in shape but instead of measuring distances, calipers are used to transfer distances between objects. An outside caliper is used to transfer outside dimensions while an inside caliper is used to transfer inside distances. A vernier caliper is an extremely precise caliper (down to \({1 \over 1000}\) inch) that allows measuring / transferring either inside or outside dimensions.
When compared to drilling, boring makes __________ holes.
rougher |
|
smoother |
|
larger |
|
smaller |
Drilling is the process of making small holes in wood or metal while boring is the process of making larger holes.
