That probably hurt, but if you were using a table saw, you'd be hitchhiking with your right hand.

Bandsaw=Bestsaw. Hard to hurt yourself unless you really try (I’m going to cut my whole hand off tomorrow, I’m sure) And drat that looks painful. Must have been a fairly fine tooth blade? I’ve always been scared a coarse blade would just start ripping chunks out and make an awful nasty cut.

I was using my table saw a couple months ago and noticed blood on my workpiece. Looked over my hands and noticed a skin deep cut the exact width of the blade kerf. Still not sure how I managed that one.

Sawstop doesn't do anything to protect against kickbacks though, right? That's what the riving knife is for?

The video shows the guy "demonstrating" a kickback almost pulling his hand into the blade.

Are we still doing pictures of stupid self inflicted injuries? Here's one of the main reasons I decided to get a saw stop.  It's out of focus (sorry, it was taken with an old phone 8 years ago) but this was a result of me pretty much punching a table saw blade. I had my hand on a piece of wood above the blade, the blade kicked the wood out and my knuckles went right into the blade. Luckily I had a fence set up about 1" away from the blade so they only glanced across it. 16 stitches, no tendon or bone damage at all. I was lucky as poo poo, as well as loving stupid as poo poo. I could see the knuckle in my middle finger. That was pretty hosed up. I'm WAY safer with my tools now, but as I'm trying to get my daughter interested in wood working as well, I figured I'd get the saw stop to reduce some of the danger anyway.

Someone local is selling a no name (at least that shows up on google) table press drill made in Germany in the late 90's. $50 or so for it. 300W, 600-2500RPM belt gearbox. Bad idea or "how bad can it be for $50 so why not"?

At that price is it physically solid and does it have terrible runout, $50 is about as cheap as they get right?

Hey what’s a good oscillating multitool that won’t break the bank? Looking for sub-$100 if possible, corded or battery. About to purchase a house and have a lot of small jobs that will need to be tackled.

Man, all these finger injuries from saws. That's why I stick to nice, safe things like assembling IKEA furniture And re: oscillating tools, I ended up grabbing a corded Ridgid and it's worked well to cut baseboards and drywall, and remove excess mortar from tile joints. I think it was around $70. dakana fucked around with this message at 21:28 on Feb 4, 2019 |

Picked up a No. 6 Stanley off eBay for a bit more than I would have liked, but I think my collection is complete now (It never will be). Talking to my dad about it, and he used to be a real yard sale and auction junkie in the 80's and 90's. He said back then widows were unloading sets of 10 hand planes for $5.00 because nobody wanted them then. Almost every sale would have a tool box full of them and he figured a good number of them would just end up in landfills because nobody ever showed interest in them. This is sort of like 70's audio equipment in the early 2000's when stuff that sells for $100-400 now was either going for $10 or going to the curb.

Slugworth posted:I have a cheap corded craftsman one that has never failed me. My opinion is it's the type of tool where the quality of the blade is gonna make more difference than quality of the tool. That’s what I’m figuring as well. The HF one looks decent and I can pick up one and some nice blades for the the price of a better one.

Is there a big difference between an impact driver and a hammer drill?
|
|
#

Feb 5, 2019 01:34

Yes. One applies the banging toward the end, driving it into the surface. The other applies the banging in a rotary direction, driving the thing circularly. They have entirely different applications. e: Hammer bangs in, impact bangs around.

AIUI impact drivers are basically for driving screws into standard materials without the cam-out you'd get if you used a regular drill, while hammer drills are for driving stuff into concrete and masonry and so on.

I was utterly underwhelmed by Ryobi's impact driver pushing spax screws into fence panels & post. Couldn't do it, even with countersink help. Compared to their standard drill, it sucks. First time I'd used it on a heavy application since I got it last year in some promo deal Homey Depomey ran. Maybe that's not what it's intended for.

That is a shot at ryobi tools not users haha You're talking like 1 1/4 too I'd imagine. Should just fly in with the countersink!?
