bevágással

Bevágással refers to the technique of creating a notch, groove, or recessed feature by cutting into a material. It is a common method in woodworking, carpentry, and metalworking, used to join parts, accommodate hardware, or receive another component. The resulting feature is called a bevágás and can be located along an edge, end, or surface; it may be straight or angled.

Common forms include straight bevágás (a groove or recess running along a line to accept a panel or edge) and bevelled bevágás (an angled cut used for mitre joints, trim, or fitting). In cabinetry and furniture, deeper recesses for housings or mortises are also described as bevágások. Depending on regional terminology, related joints such as rabbet joints may be described as edge bevágások.

Process and practice emphasize planning and accuracy. Marking is done with squares, rulers, and marking gauges, followed by cutting with suitable tools such as hand saws, circular or table saws with groove or dado blades, routers, or chisels. After cutting, parts are test-fitted and finished with sanding to remove tear-out and achieve a smooth surface. Tight tolerances improve fit and strength, while excessive force can cause damage.

Materials and applications vary but are most common in wood, where moisture movement must be accounted for. Bevágással is used in cabinetry, furniture making, picture frames, paneling, and flooring transitions, as well as in metal and plastic fabrication where precise recesses are needed.

Safety considerations include securing the workpiece, using appropriate PPE, and following tool-specific precautions to avoid injuries.
