Building with Wood and Metal


Hugo: Wow, when you said that you did some woodworking on the weekends, I thought you meant refinishing furniture. But this! This is a real workshop and you’re actually building furniture. 


Shawna: Yeah, this is what I’m working on right now. I’m building a dining table and chairs. 


Hugo: The grain is beautiful on this piece of hardwood. It certainly looks better than the plywood furniture I have in my house. What is all this? 


Shawna: Just some basic tools: saws, chisels 1, and drills. 


Hugo: And what is all this metal for? 


Shawna: I’m adding some grillwork for the back of the chairs. I don’t usually do metalwork, but I’m keeping it simple. 


Hugo: This doesn’t look simple. These pieces have been welded together, and is that used for soldering 2? 


Shawna: You got it. When all is said and done, I’ll have a new dining room set with a large table and eight chairs. 


Hugo: Wow, I’m impressed. 


Shawna: Want to try your hand at it? 


Hugo: No thanks. You see these 10 fingers? I’m rather fond of them.
