Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

or just buy one for $7, probably almost that much in hex bolts in his design

 

Frankly, this is a solution looking for a problem that should not exist.

I've owned around 10 or grinders over the years. I've tossed the wrenches in the scrap pile for every one.

If your disks are that tight, you are doing something wrong. They only need to be good and snug.

 

looks like about $80 to me

 

flap discs/grinding wheels are never a problem. it's really only when using cutoff wheels. they go on hand snug, but by the time i lay into it slightly, and it wears down to need to be changed, the circumference is no longer large enough to get enough of a grip on it to loosen it up.

and due to the brittleness of cutoff wheels, i generally always use a pin wrench on them once they've got at least a 1/4" of wear on them-- far too many self-tighten during use, and trying to gorrilla-hand it off usually results in a good disc cracking apart.

 

I will stay in my zone, we have 15 stations and a city department in our county,
How it sits now it is going to be a whole county response, I pray it is ok, but prepared for the worst

 

Morning all
Calm before the storm.
I will check in later you all have a great day

 

Be safe!

 

Good morning shop crew, have a great, safe and blessed Tuesday.

 

Happy Birthday @koditten !!

 

If it's anything from what I've dealt with insurance is trying every avenue before shelling out the cash for a total replacement. It's a waste of everyone's time.

 

Happy birthday @koditten

 

Good morning Wrenchmen

Last night I fell asleep in the chair (again), when I woke up the cat was sleeping on my Chromebook keyboard.

This morning my view looks like this:



Is everybody seeing this view or is mine messed up.
An icon for "Gemini" also appeared in my tool bar...

Looks like this is going to be one of those days.

43 degrees outside too.

 

I think you're computer is a little messed up. FireFox on Windows 10 and everything looks copacetic here

 

The "Gemini" thing makes me think virus, but I've never operated a Chromebook, so I don't know

 

Good morning everyone
