      1.5              STATEMENT OF PROBLEMS
      The continuous quest to have the problems of man and his growing need solved has led to the establishment of factories and others industries, which necessities an intermediate technology.  However, simple hand tools that were in use before are no longer efficient for mass production.  In the same manner, the importation of wood lathe machine, as a substitute for these tools, likewise has failed to meet man’s insatiable needs because of our unstable economy.
      Then, there comes the need for urgent attention to a better and locally made wood lathe machine.
      1.6              PURPOSE OF STUDY
      The design and fabrication of wood the lathe machine aims among others thing at justifying a simple way of scraping and cutting off wood at it’s hest quality at a minimum cost of labour, so that the financial burden if people can be reduced.
      The simple design and fabrication of this machine, makes it viable, reliable and easy to carryout maintenance services at the minimized cost.

    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ] To achieve the aim of producing a functional and efficient wood lathe machine.  We analyzed and as well synthesized the different possible design solutions and concepts.  We carried out the analysis of different component part of the machine to determine their suitable dimensions based on loading and stresses due to them.  We used available local material and tool from a private workshop. We also made use of some machine tools in the school workshop.  Finally, the parts were assemble and t ... Continue reading---
