These are the tools you can’t do without: • Claw hammer, used for just about anything you can think of. • Rubber mallet, for gently bashing pieces together that resist going together; also for forming sheet metal. • Screwdriver assortment, including various sizes of flat-head and Philips-head screw- drivers. • Hacksaw, with an assortment of blades. Coarse-tooth blades are good for wood and PVC pipe; fine-tooth blades are good for copper, aluminum, and light-gauge steel. • Miter box, to cut straight lines. • Wrenches, all types. Adjustable wrenches are helpful additions to the shop. Small and large Vice-Grips (that’s a brand name) help you hold pieces for cutting and sanding. • Nut drivers, make it easy to attach nuts to bolts. • Measuring tape, a 6- or 8-foot steel measuring tape is a good choice. A cloth tape helps measure unusual shapes. For precision, purchase a small (6- to 8-inch) machin- ist’s rule, graduated in inches, metric, or both. • Square (18-inch), for making sure that pieces you cut and assemble from wood, plastic, and metal are square. • File assortment, to smooth the rough edges. Get a set for larger pieces, and another small set (called needle files) for miniature work. • Drill motor,with variable speed control. • Drill bit assortment, good, sharp ones only. If yours are dull, have them sharpened, or replace them. A small set with sizes from 1/16 inch to 1/4 inch is fine for starters. • Wire crimping tool, for crimping lugs and connectors onto various sizes of wires. Get the kind that can handle wire from 12 to 22 gauge. • Vise, for holding parts. A modest-size vice that attaches to your workbench with bolts (not a clamp; they don’t hold) is sufficient. • Safety goggles, for use whenever you’re using tools to hammer, cut, drill, or any other time when flying debris could get in your eyes. Be sure you use the goggles. cust@woodturnerscatalog.com http://www.woodturnerscatalog.com/ See listing under Materials-Other. x V Elenco Electronics 202139 150 W.

Be sure to use a drill press vice to hold the pieces. Never use your hands! •A table saw or circular saw makes cutting through large pieces of wood and plastic easier. Use it with a guide fence for straight cuts. •A scroll saw or saber saw lets you cut out shapes. A decent scroll saw is not expensive and provides good accuracy. • A motorized hobby tool, like those made by Dremel and Weller, makes short work out of a number of chores. The latest models have adjustable speed controls, which you need. Be sure to select the right bit for the job. A more powerful alternative to the hobby tool is the Roto-Zip (that’s its trade name). • Hot-melt glue guns let you apply fast-setting glue to most any surface. They are avail- able at most hardware and hobby stores and are available in a variety of sizes. • With a nibbling tool you can “nibble” small chunks from metal and plastic pieces. Use the tool to cut channels and enlarge holes. •A tap and die set lets you thread holes and shafts to accept standard-size nuts and bolts. •Abrazing tool or small welder allows you spot-weld or braze two metal pieces together. Use these for small work only, and only if you’re old enough to pay for fire insurance. WASSCO 202568 12778 Brookprinter Pl.

Their emphasis is on precision wood- working (cabinetry, inlays, etc.), so their tools are designed for that extra measure of accuracy. Expect prices to match. x V &Tools-Machinery Machinery tools include mills and lathes. A mill is used to carve material to create complex 3D shapes. It can also be used as a very accurate drill press (in fact, a mill looks a lot like a drill press). A lathe is used to cut against spinning rod or square material and is used for such jobs as cutting grooves in wheel axles. The resources in this section are primarily aimed at desktop machinery, most of which is affordable for home workshops. See also Tools-CNC for computer- ized versions of mills and lathes.

These tools are similar in fea- tures and function as the behemoths you see at large machine shops and on manufacturing floors, but are scaled down in both size and price—an ideal mix for amateur robot builders. First, some definitions: •A mill is like a vertical drill press. Instead of a cutting bit that just goes up and down, on a mill the work piece itself can be moved horizontally and laterally. This allows the mill to produce complex shapes, instead of just holes. •A lathe is used to rotate a part against a cutting tool. It is typ- ically used to contour round or cylindrical material—threads on a rod, for example. The material turns on a horizontal bed; the cutting tool is brought up against the material. •A CNC router is a high-speed cutting tool, like a wood router, that is attached to a mechanism that moves the router along the X, Y, and Z axes. This movement is man- aged by a computer. A CNC router is inherently a computer-controlled device. Mills and lathes can be completely manual affairs, or they, too, can be hooked up to a computer. With most models, you can purchase a manual desktop mill and lathe today, and sometime down the road retrofit it for computer control. Desktop lathes can be used to create wheel hubs, shafts, specialty fasteners, and more. Photo: Sherline Products Inc. A desktop mill can be used to create miniature parts for your robot.

Box 6010 Camarillo, CA 93011-6010 USA tools-machinery 630 Makers of Desktop Machinery There are a number of makers of desktop mills, lathes, and CNC routers. Among the more common manufacturers are: • Cool Tools • FlashCut CNC • ISMG • Techno-Isel • Liberty Enterprises • Many/EasyCut • MAXNC • MicroKinetics • Minicraft • Minitech • Sherline • Super-Tech • TAIG Prices and features from these makers vary. If you’re interested in acquiring a desktop mill, lathe, or CNC router, you’re well advised to get information on as many of them as possible. The typical starting price for the better-made tool is $500, so consider research part of your investment. Not all desktop tools are created equally. Some, like those from Cool Tools, are designed for garage shop tinkerers on a budget. They’re fine for working with lightweight materials like soft plastics and thin woods, but don’t think you can use them to produce highly accurate complex shapes from stainless steel! Price goes up based on accuracy, power, and size, so plan your purchase accordingly. If you need to work with pieces up to 20 inches, don’t settle for a machine with a maximum cutting size of just 18 inches. One way to save money on a desktop mill or lathe is to purchase it used. The better machines fetch good prices on eBay and other online auctions, but you may have good luck snagging a steal simply by going to garage sales and checking the local newspaper classified ads.
