    • Organise tools for easy access to frequently used ones
    • Avoid accumulating unnecessary tools
    • Tool control affects safety, and misplaced tools can cause damage or injury
    • Foreign object damage (FOD) costs the global aerospace industry $4 billion annually

    Punches and Chisels

    • Hit punches squarely and keep their heads free of burrs to prevent mushrooming
    • Remove mushroom shapes from punches using a bench grinder
    • Prick punches are used to transfer dimensions and locations onto sheet metal for drilling
    • Avoid using prick punches to drive pins or rivets from holes

    Files and Filing

    • Familiarise yourself with the parts of a file: tang, heel, faces, edges, point, and back
    • Files can be used for roughing or finishing processes
    • The rate of cutting and surface finish depend on the depth and spacing of the file's cutting teeth
    • Different cuts and types of files are suited for working on different metals
    • Common cuts include rough, middle, bastard, second cut, smooth, and dead smooth
