Engineering Worksheet: Tools and Safety

Engineering lesson 7: Tools and workshop safety · Set 131 · 40 questions

Engineer's tip (Right tool, safe hands): Measure → tape measure, protractor · level → spirit level · cut → saw · nails → hammer. Screws → screwdriver · nuts → spanner · holes → drill · wire → pliers · smooth → sandpaper. Safe: goggles, tied hair, clamps, tidy bench, cut away from you, adult for hot or power tools.
