Question

The tools used for scrapping out large chunk of stone to get primary shape: A. Flat chisel
B. Point tools
C. Toothed files
D. Punch tools
E. Claw tools Choose the correct answer from the options below :

• A. A and B only
• B. B and D only
• C. B and E only
• D. A and C only

Hint:

Logic Tip: Point and punch tools are rough-shaping tools used first in stone carving.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept:
Stone carving begins by removing large unwanted portions of stone to establish the primary form. Heavy-duty shaping tools are used during the roughing-out stage.

Step 1:
Point tools are used for:
• Breaking large stone surfaces
• Removing excess mass
• Creating rough primary form Thus, option B is correct.

Step 2:
Punch tools are also used during rough carving to:
• Chip large sections
• Define basic structure Thus, option D is correct.

Step 3:
Flat chisel (A)
Used mainly for finishing and refining surfaces. Toothed files (C)
Used for smoothing after rough shaping. Claw tools (E)
Used in intermediate texturing, not primary rough removal. Therefore, the correct set is: \[ B \text{ and } D \] Hence, the correct answer is: \[ \boxed{\text{(2) B and D only}} \]
