1. The document provides instructions for making a scoop from a sheet of galvanized iron measuring 300mm x 350mm x 0.33mm thickness. It describes marking layout lines, cutting away excess metal using shears, folding the metal along various lines, locking the folds using a stake and mallet, and checking dimensions. 2. Key steps include marking layout lines at 280mm, 60mm, and 10mm from edges, shearing away excess metal, folding the metal at lines using 180 and 90 degree folds, locking folds with a stake and mallet, and checking final dimensions match specifications. 3. The completed scoop is made according to specifications from the sheet metal piece by following the

SCOOP MAKING
Aim:
To make a big scoop of given specification from a sheet metal piece

Application:
It’s a device use to carry, pick and transfer the things

Material Specifications:
Material : Galvanized iron
Sheet of dimensions : 300mm x 350mm thickness 33 gauge

Tools Required:
1. Steel rule 2. Sriber 3. Straight snip 4. Stake 5. Anvil 6 .mallet

Sequence of operation:
1. Checking 2. Layout marking 3. Shearing 4. Folding 5.locking and finishing

Checking:
Check whether the given sheet is having its dimension as 300mm x 350mm. If the
dimension is excess trim off using hand shear. If It’s less change the given sheet.

Layout Marking:
1. Place the given sheet over working table, so that side of dimension 350 is
horizontal.
2. From reference point to draw the vertical line 280mm, 60 mm and remaining
portion 10mm for hemming allowance. (Given interval 280 mm for base and 60
mm for top height.)
3. Now place 300mm side, first to be draw 5mm line both sides. These line provided
for hemming. Next to be marked 10 mm both side.
4. On the 280 line to be mark both side 60 mm point. (Note: Should be mark after
hemming line). Then draw vertical line at both points. Connect the points above
and the points below.
5. Now you get square on top corner both side and draw the diagonal line from the
bottom.
6. Draw Hatch line shown in figure.

Shearing:
1. Remove the unwanted portion shown in the layout with the help of snip.
2. While cutting, cut along the proper line and remove the unwanted portions
Folding:
1. Keep the pattern over square and fold the 5mm hemming portion with 180o
towards marking side
2. Then fold 60mm height portion with 90o opposite to marking side
3. Again fold two slant lines opposite to the marking side.
4. The scoop is having two incomplete corners. In align the corner of stake, fold the
triangular shape both side with help of mallet

Locking and finishing:


1. Fold the remaining portion 1800 outwards using stake and mallet to lock the folds
2. To make perfect shape using mallet.
3. Check for the dimension

Pre Lab Question:


1. What type of material used in sheet metal generally?

2. Explain the use of scoop?

3. What is the minimum and maximum sheet metal thickness?

4. Mention the least count for steel rule?

5. Define layout?
Post Lab Question:
1. What is the purpose of anvil?

2. Which tool is used for measuring the thickness of sheet metal?

3. Mention the diagonal angle in scoop making layout?

4. At what stage the sheet metal is called as pattern?

5. What is a GI sheet? Why it is called so?

RESULT:

Thus the required scoop is made out of the given sheet metal piece as per the
specification.
