Q.1. what are the tools and equipment’s

used in tin smithy shop?

Answer –

Tools and equipment used in tin smithy shop: -

  1. Tinsmith’s Anvil -

The anvil is at a core of many metalworking trades and tinsmithing is no exception. An anvil is, essentially, a flat, sturdy, metal base that allows tinsmiths to hammer or shape metal on a firm surface. The face of an anvil is flat, providing a smooth surface on which to place and strike the workpiece.

  1. Hammers - The purpose of the anvil in tinsmithing would be moot without the use of a hammer or mallet to actually strike the workpiece. Hammers are very versatile tools that allow you to accomplish many different metalworking tasks. Part of the reason why this is true is because there are many different kinds of hammers
  1. Seaming pliers - Seaming pliers or seaming tongs are other hand tools that are used to firmly grip, bend, and fold over the edges of sheet metal. These pliers feature wide, flat faces that can be straight or offset from the handle in order to improve the angle of the grip.
  2. Stakes –

Tinsmithing stakes are tools used to form metal workpieces. The tin or other sheet metal piece is typically placed on a stake and formed with a hammer so that it bends along the shape of the stake underneath it. Stakes can be flat or curved, which allow a tinsmith to create a variety of angles and rounded shapes with a tin workpiece. These forming stakes are available in different shapes and sizes to be used in many types of applications.

  1. Scribing Iron – A scribing iron is an iron-pointed hand tool that allows you to scribe onto sheet metal.

A flat scraper is a convenient hand tool used to scrape metal off of flat surfaces. It is made of a flat blade with a sharpened end that efficiently scrapes metal off a surface.

  1. Rivet set – Rivet set is made of tool steel. At the bottom of the rivet set there is a deep hole and a cup- shaped hole. The deep hole is used to draw a rivet through sheet metal and cup shaped hole is used to form the finished head of the rivet. Another hole on the side of the set is to release the burrs that are punched. Dollis are used to backup rivet when it is not possible to support the job on a bench.
