I. Safety rules when using hand tools in the carpentry industry

1. Rules for using a hammer

Do not use the side of the hammer to hit nails and other objects, but always use the head of the hammer. Using the side of the hammer to hit creates an unbalanced impact force, not only insufficient force but also can damage the hammer.

Do not use one hammer to hit another hammer: Hammers are designed with similar materials, so using one hammer to hit another hammer can damage both hammers, when the impact force and the reaction force oppose each other.

Do not use a hammer if your hands are wet, greasy or oily. This will cause you to have an unstable grip on the hammer, making it more likely to slip from your hand and cause injury.

2. Rules when using files

Do not use the file as a chisel, pry bar or hammer. Sometimes you may find it convenient to use the file for other purposes, but this is completely unsafe and can easily injure your hands and damage the file.

When using a file, hold the handle with one hand and the head of the file with the other. Holding it correctly will help you control the file more firmly, safely and accurately.

3. Rules when using saws

Do not use a saw with a dull blade. A dull blade not only reduces cutting efficiency but also requires more force to cut. Using too much force can cause an accident if you lose momentum or control the saw.

Keep your fingers away from the blade while using the saw. This will help you stay safe and prevent dangerous sawing operations if not done correctly. It is best to wear professional carpentry gloves.

Make sure you oil the saw blade after every use. This helps the saw to last longer and prevents rusting due to exposure to air or corrosive substances.

4. Rules when using chisels

Always make sure your chisel has a sharp edge. Do not use a chisel with a rusty or dull blade. A dull chisel requires a lot of force, which can reduce the chiseling efficiency and also pose a risk of injury.

Use a tool holder to hold the chisel. The chisel blade is very susceptible to collision with other tools, causing chipping and damage to other objects. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the chisel in a separate location and it is best to put it on a stand to best protect the chisel.

5. Rules for using the toolbox

Do not stand on the toolbox or place heavy objects on top while working. This can easily cause the toolbox to dent and affect the tools stored inside.

Close and lock all drawers before moving the toolbox from one location to another. If you do not lock them properly, you may lose all the tools, damaging the tools and injuring yourself.

These are general safety rules to follow when using basic hand tools in carpentry. By following all the rules mentioned, you will always be safe while doing your work.
