It's dangerous as gently caress. That thing will be spinning around at insane speeds and those 3 bits will be doing their best to exit at high speed like shrapnel from a grenade. They are held in place only by friction, which is dependant on a single screw which has the dual features of a) being constantly vibrated loose and b) having the thread battered every time it cuts anything, increased the chances of a). Oh, if you hit a hidden nail, the bits will almost certainly shatter and do their shrapnel impressions, only in small, sharper pieces. E: In theory, if you were to design it so that the bits could not fly out (perhaps make then J-shaped) and used a material that were malleable enough to bend, rather than shatter; then you would have a tool that was merely 'dangerous' as it shudders and jumps across the wood, lunging for your jugular.

actually i have an extremely osha story from one of those friends who fought for rojava according to this one guy, it wasnt uncommon for the safety caps to be unscrewed while a person was running with a loaded rpg-7 and when they tripped and the nose hit the pavement and triggered the rocket to go off it was bye bye (the forgotten weapons video on the rpg-7 even mentions this!) there's a lot of really rad but extremely osha homemade tanks made by basically welding plate steel on to tractors in rojava. it's pretty much an anarchist tradition tho if you look at the spanish civil war and other conflicts

Shut up Meg posted:It's dangerous as gently caress. This is actually worse than I thought at first glance, because I thought the "bits" were one solid piece with a screwhole for the screw to secure it by, but nope:  It's literally just 3 flat pieces of metal pushed into place by how tight the screw is or isn't. Once of those things is going flying within 5 minutes of operation.

And that's probably an ikea-quality Allen key, so as soon as you try to tighten it up as much as you think it should be tightened, it's going to start rounding itself off and twisting.

Kanine posted:actually i have an extremely osha story from one of those friends who fought for rojava I like picking out the re-used industrial bits. I think the troop compartment of that first one is the bottom of one half of a hopper-car, upside-down. The Syrian used car market is going to be seriously strange for a while.

I'm a machinist by trade and it would blow your mind what you can do with one set screw. Huge rear end drills can plow into a part with the friction from one screw holding it in place, pressed against a flat ground into the body of the drill. That being said I would not use that thing. The teeth are too far apart, there's not enough support behind them, and the inserts are probably hard and brittle, and susceptible to breaking into pieces when they hit something awkwardly (which is almost a guarantee since you'll be operating it by hand), and the pieces are going to go somewhere very fast.

dphi posted:This one looks fun too These tools are the kind of poo poo you'd imagine some poor fucker working the beaches in Alang to use. "Forged in the fires of some back-yard foundry in the Khyber Pass and heartily endorsed by four-finger Fulbabu. He gives it one and a half thumbs up!". OSHA from old friends: Buddy of mine worked at a manufacturer of Lotus Super 7 replicas. The stock drivetrain on these cars at the time came out of a rear-wheel-drive Toyota Corolla. Engine, transmission, and the rear-end were the main components reused. With no reason to save the rest of the donor cars, they put him to work cutting these parts off with a gas-torch. He did as told for two weeks before the boss yelled at him for not emptying the old cars' gas tanks before sitting on top of them while cutting the rear axles free. Whoops, must have skipped that day of training.
