kerf

Don’t forget the all-important drip kerf under the crown overhang!

We learn the word for the space that the saw eats up in the wood — kerf — and how to operate circular saws, routers, drills and drivers.

Crowns are supposed to overhang the chimney and have a drip kerf on the underside of the overhang.

In the field the dead sedge was drifted nearly out of sight and the snow stood in razor kerfs atop the fencewires and the silence was breathless.

I see new words that sound cool like dado and kerf and tenon and mortise.
