Black & Decker’s Guide to Great Woodwork

How many of us have thought on a Sunday, to try and fix that shaky dining table or put up a new book shelf, but either failed or didn’t know where to start? Working with wood can be a little tricky at first but it’s not impossible. Everybody needs to start somewhere and just like any art-form the basics matter the most. This week we’re going to help eliminate your starting troubles by giving you five basic tips that you should know before you start your weekend project.

Safety Always Comes First

Safety is the most important part of any project. If you’re prepared, then nothing can go wrong. This means wearing the right protective gear, using the right tools and picking the perfect space.

Do a Tool Check

Before you dig in, do make sure you read up a little on your project and know which tools you’ll need and what the correct way of using those tools are. Using tools incorrectly can be dangerous and could leave your table or book shelf looking a little off.

Buy The Right Material

Ensure that you are using high quality wood and other materials as nothing is worse than spending hours of effort on something only to have it splinter and hurt the people you made it for.

You’re Only Human

Making mistakes is all part of DIY. You’re allowed to make a few when you start as; with constant practice you’ll get better over time. Remember, failure is the stepping stone to success.

Woodworking tools from Black & Decker

Once you gain a little experience in the DIY arena, carpentry or woodworking is one of the most rewarding activities to indulge in. It can help you create a piece of long-lasting furniture that you can proudly display in your living space. At Black & Decker, we provide you a range of woodworking tools ideal for the amateur as well as for professional users. Here’s an overview:

Saws: If the word saw brings an image of a jagged edge metallic implement to your mind, then you will be delighted to see the advanced tools offered by us. These can help you cut through not just wood, but steel and masonry too. You can choose between circular saws and different models of jigsaw based on your need. In case of doubt, our store personnel will be happy to help you match your requirements.

Planers: Planers help to remove the surface level material that helps when you need to ease doors and windows that have expanded with the change in seasons. Another use would be removing surface coatings or even smoothing uneven surfaces. Choose the model based on the depth of cut you need, and the power delivered.

Router: These tools are very useful for making grooves in wood, such as those needed in decorative shelves or for simple carving patterns. With the stable design that can be stood up both ways, we would not be surprised if you mistake the B&D Router for a small robot.

Sander: The Sander is used at the end of the project to provide finishing touches such as sanding, varnishing or removing rust. Our sander model is very lightweight and easy to use, with the palm grip design making it ideal for single-handed use. It can also operate at a high speed to get your job done faster.
