Cutting Tools Question

[redsox985]

It's a guy on YouTube, I just searched FlowJet in action. He's got way to much money. AKA owning a FlowJet and cutting expensive stuff up just for fun.

This is his site.

That was my thought all along. My high pressure "cutter" is a pressure washer ~2000 psi and it only splinters wood.

my high-pressure cutter is my cousins truck, it will pull/ demolish/runover just about anything, lol.
p.s. redsox, if i had a roll-cage, i probably would use it eventualy, lol

cut off wheels are great just don't buy the cheapo ones they tend to burst with the slightest bit of lateral movement and lets say, those pieces are moving fast.

Yea that reminds me, my old man sent me email regarding an accident in his industry.

A man was trying to cut though a man hole approx. 10mm. He tried a 6inch cut off wheel but that didnt work. So he gets a 12inch drop saw wheel and goes for it. This is all on a 9inch grinder with the guards removed.

A little bit of flex and the blade snaps going 10-20000 RPM? and a chunk get lodged in this guys head. A stupid and dreadful way to die. Have pictures if you dont believe me..

Has taught me a lesson anyway.

Are you sure you want to see the pics? pretty disgusting.
Give me a couple minutes...

 

[Bluethunder3320]

i think he meant he didnt want to see them... but yuck.

 

[redsox985]

Let's pass as in go by them and NOT stop to look.

 

[KieranM]

Take it off here mate, the majority of users are young, dosent offend me but dont want this place to go down that road

 

[redsox985]

I strongly second that.

 

[Bluethunder3320]

i thought you ment pass them on. you know? My bad, have been removed.

 

[redsox985]

Well, I'm glad it's down. I wasn't personally upset by it, it's life and $#!+ happens. Cleaning up that is awful (my uncle committed suicide via 12ga).

 

[Rustydog2010]

Yea it doesn't bother me, but cleaning it up would scare the **** outta me...

 

[fowler]

can u imagine watching that situation unfold in front of u

i can see people new to the kart building thing never wanting to touch their chop-saw again after those pics, it was defiantly best to remove them ty
