Starts with A

Two words. Using an electrical supply to generate an electric arc, which generates a high temperature

Starts with B

A screw-like metal object without a point, used with a nut to fasten things together (Cambridge dictionary)

Starts with C

Two words. An abrasive or toothed wheel designed to cut materials

Starts with D

Removal of material across the full diameter of a hole, or using hole-saws for cutting circumferential kerfs

Starts with E

The electrical connection between the circuit and the ground

Starts with F

Two words. The presence of small, bubble-like air pockets inside the mass of welded metal reducing the strength of the weld.

Starts with G

Using an abrasive wheel to grind away the surface, producing hot particles of molten metal due to heat from friction in the form of sparks

Starts with H

A gas less dense than air

Contains I

A long, narrow raised part of a surface, especially a high edge along a mountain (Cambridge dictionary).

Contains J

Cutting materials using extremely powerful jets of water.

Starts with K

It is the width of the saw cut

Starts with L

The wire through which current flows into an appliance

Starts with M

Removal of surface layers with multiple cutting wheel passes.

Starts with N

The wire through which current flows out of the appliance

Starts with O

Shaped like a circle that is flattened so that it is like an egg or an ellipse (Cambridge dictionary)

Starts with P

It makes holes by applying pressure to shear the material.

Contains Q

Two words. The degree of smoothness of the edge of a material after it has been cut.

Starts with R

A metal pin used to fasten flat pieces of metal or other thick materials such as leather (Cambridge dictionary)

Starts with S

The part of a piece of equipment, especially electrical equipment, into which another part fits (Cambridge dictionary).

Starts with T

Two words. A material’s ability to behave consistently at different temperatures

Contains U

A solid object with six rectangular sides (Cambridge dictionary)

Starts with V

Shaking at a high frequency

Contains W

Abrasive cutting, removing a kerf of material. Includes cutting with toothed blades and abrasive wheels

Contains X

Two words. Oxygen + combustible gas, often acetylene

Contains Y

A solid that has long straight sides and circular ends of equal size, or a hollow object shaped like this and often used as a container (Cambridge dictionary)

Contains Z

3 words: The area modified by high temperatures (resulting from the heat of cutting)
