Few candidates  who attempted this question did well.   However, majority of them were unable to: 
                    -           state the methods of securing a tenon  in its mortise without using glue; 
                      -           list the stuffing materials used in  upholstery; 
                      -           list the types of turning operation  performed on the lathe. 
                    The expected  response to question 4 is as given below:
