Woodworking method and apparatus

Abstract

A method for joining two materials together comprising providing guiding means for guiding a shaping means for shaping said materials; and joining said materials together. Also provided is a tool for which has a rigid cylindrical portion with a low amount of run-out to allow for highly accurate milling of a workpiece.

1 . A tool for milling materials on a slow speed milling device, said tool having a rigid cylindrical portion and a closely toleranced tubular abrasive cylindrical means for fitting over at least a portion of said cylindrical portion, and a solvent-free adhesive intermediate said cylindrical portion and said abrasive cylindrical means, wherein said cylindrical portion has a run-out of less than 5 thousands of an inch, when rotated.  
     
     
         2 . A tool as claimed in  claim 1  adapted to contact a template for milling materials to a desired shape further including a body having means for contacting said template for milling said material.  
     
     
         3 . A tool as claimed in  claim 2  wherein said body includes an integral bearing for contacting said template.  
     
     
         4 . A tool as claimed in claim including two spaced integral bearings for removably securing said abrasive cylindrical means therebetween.  
     
     
         5 . A tool as claimed in  claim 4  wherein one bearing surface includes a hole for receiving a fastener for fastening one bearing surface to said cylindrical portion.  
     
     
         6 . A tool as claimed in  claim 5  wherein said bearing surfaces include a cylindrical surface having a first diameter, and said abrasive cylindrical means includes an abrasive tube having a second outside diameter.  
     
     
         7 . A tool as claimed in  claim 6  wherein said second diameter is substantially the same as said first diameter.  
     
     
         8 . A tool as claimed in  claim 6  wherein said second diameter is less than said first diameter.  
     
     
         9 . A tool as claimed in  claim 2  wherein said tubular abrasive cylindrical means has an outside diameter which is substantially the same as an outside diameter of said body.  
     
     
         10 . A tool as claimed in  claim 2  wherein said tubular abrasive cylindrical means has a diameter less than an outside diameter of said body.  
     
     
         11 . A tool as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said milling device has a rotational speed of less than 2000 rpm.  
     
     
         12 . A tool as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said milling device is a drill press.  
     
     
         13 . A tool as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said run-out of said rigid cylindrical portion is less than 3 thousands of an inch.  
     
     
         14 . A tool as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said run-out of said cylindrical portion is less than 1 thousands of an inch.  
     
     
         15 . A tool as claimed in  claim 2  wherein said body has a run-out of less than 5 thousands of an inch when rotated.  
     
     
         16 . A tool as claimed in  claim 2  wherein said body has a run-out of less than 3 thousands of an inch.  
     
     
         17 . A tool as claimed in  claim 2  wherein said body has a run-out of less than 1 thousands of an inch.
