A lathe skill refers to the ability to operate a lathe machine, which is a tool used in metalworking, woodworking, and other material processing industries to shape, cut, sand, knurl, drill, or turn materials. The workpiece is rotated while various tools are applied to it.
Key lathe skills include:
Machine setup – Loading the material and setting up the lathe with the right tools and speeds.
Reading blueprints – Understanding technical drawings and specifications for machining.
Tool selection and adjustment – Choosing and correctly positioning cutting tools.
Precision measurement – Using calipers, micrometers, and gauges to ensure accuracy.
Thread cutting and facing – Creating threads and smooth surfaces on workpieces.
Safety awareness – Knowing how to safely operate machinery and handle materials.
Someone skilled with a lathe is often called a machinist or lathe operator.
Steel fixer (also known as a rebar worker or reinforcing ironworker) is a skilled tradesperson who works with steel reinforcement bars (rebars) used in concrete construction. Their main responsibilities include:
Reading and Interpreting Drawings
Understanding technical drawings, plans, and specifications to determine the type, quantity, and placement of steel reinforcement.
Cutting and Bending Rebars
Using tools and machines to cut, shape, and bend steel bars to required dimensions.
Positioning and Securing Steel
Placing the rebars in the correct positions according to the plans.
Securing them with wire, clips, or welding to ensure they stay in place during concrete pouring.
Assembling Reinforcement Cages
Constructing steel reinforcement cages or frameworks for concrete structures like columns, beams, slabs, and walls.
Working with Concrete Teams
Coordinating with concrete workers to ensure proper coverage and positioning of steel during pouring.
Following Safety Protocols
Using PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and following safety guidelines on-site.
Inspecting Work
Checking the placement and fixings for accuracy and compliance with standards before concrete is poured.
Steel fixers are essential in ensuring the structural integrity of reinforced concrete elements in buildings, bridges, tunnels, and other infrastructure projects.
