RASP

v. scrape, abrade, scour

n. file, flat tool with an abrasive surface; act of scraping, act of scouring, abrasion

RASP can also be an acronym for "Random access stored program machine" (Calvin C. Elgot & Abraham Robinson, 1964), a model that is similar to a register machine. A rasp is a woodworking tool used for shaping wood. It consists of a point or the tip, then a long steel bar or the belly, then the heel or bottom, then the tang. The tang is joined to a handle, usually made of plastic or wood. The bar has had sharp teeth cut into it. Rasps generally cut more coarsely than files. They are useful for rapidly removing wood from curved surfaces. They remove less wood than a drawknife, so they are easier to control. Even though rasps leave very coarse finishes, the cut-away areas can be easily smoothed with finer tools, such as files.
