BEVELLING Meaning and Definition

1. Bevelling is a term used to describe the process of creating a bevel, usually along the edge of an object or surface. A bevel refers to the angled or sloping cut made on a corner or along the edge of a material, such as wood, metal, or glass. The purpose of bevelling is to remove material at an angle in order to create a smooth and finished appearance or to enhance the functionality of the object.

   Bevelling can be performed through various methods, including using specialized tools such as bevel gauges, chisels, or power tools like routers or jointers. The process usually involves carefully shaving off the desired amount of material at a specific angle, resulting in a chamfered or slanted edge.

   Bevelling serves both functional and aesthetic purposes. Functionally, it can prevent sharp edges or corners from being hazardous, making an object safer to handle. This is particularly important in products that come in contact with human skin or delicate surfaces. Aesthetically, bevelling adds a decorative touch, giving a polished and refined look to the object. It also allows for easier edge joining or fitting of materials, such as when creating seamless joints in cabinetry or furniture.

   Due to its versatility, bevelling finds applications in various industries, including woodworking, metalworking, construction, and glasswork. Whether it's to create a decorative design, improve safety, or facilitate the assembly of materials, bevelling plays an integral role in achieving professional and well-finished results.

Etymology of BEVELLING

The word "bevelling" has its roots in the Old English word "bifelian" or "bifealian", which means "to cause to incline, slope, or deviate". This Old English word evolved from the combination of "bi-" (meaning "by" or "near") and "fēlan" (meaning "to cause to fall"). Over time, the word "bevelling" came to specifically refer to the process of creating an inclined or angled edge or surface on a material, typically by cutting or grinding it.
