- State two methods of bending wood.
 
                     
                      
                        - Calculate the percentage moisture  content of a piece of timber which weighed 715 g when wet and 550 g when dry.
 
                       
                        
                      
                        - List four upholstery tools.
 
                       
                      
                        - List two wood turning tools.
 
                       
                        
                      Most candidates were able to: 
                      -           name the labelled parts; 
                        -           state the methods of bending wood; 
                        -           list the upholstery tools. 
                      However, they were unable to  list wood turning tools. 
                      The expected response to  question 4 is as given below:

                      (c)        Percentage moisture content = 
                                              Wet weight – Dry weight  x 100 
                                      Dry weight                  1 
                                  -           Correct  substitution 
                          715 – 550 x 100 = 165 x 100 
                                550            1      550      1 
                                                                                              =          30%
