There's a video I won't link, a guy is standing in front of huge steel cylinders being hammered and the thing shoots out and knocks him forward, and he face plants on the bright red mass of steel, it's scary.

Tiny brains though. And there were two birds at one point, so they may have been paying attention to each other rather than keeping an eye out for falling hairless apes.

I don’t think that’s its final form, but I’m reasonably certain it’s the collar that gets placed at the end of a concrete tube for some kind of access cover (like a manhole).

I've asked for more pictures and details on milk crate bandsaw. It might be more of a thing for the mechanical successes thread if there is one.

Looks like he made something like a Portaband table, or basically just mounted a portable bandsaw in place. Might be wrong, but the manufactured look to the bandsaw vs the milk crate construction seems to indicate that.

I'm not much of a woodworker but I don't think you're supposed to wear gloves around spinning shafts and blades because you're more likely to get pulled in than gain any protection from it.

Yeah, you don’t wear gloves (or rings) around power tools that rotate or spin. You’re just asking for fingats to get ripped/sliced off, crushed, or degloved (and by that I mean skin torn off in the most horrendously painful manner possible).

Without the graphic description some people think "Yeah, degloving? That's why I wear the gloves, they'll come off if they get caught and protect my hands." You can't leave it open to interpretation.

The first time I heard "deglove" was in the context of a person woodworking while wearing a ring on their finger...with little else to go on it didn't take long to imagine what that meant.

During my first week of mechanic's trade school, they told us not to gently caress about with compressed air, not to gently caress about with bearings and definitely not to gently caress about with compressed air and bearings. A dude in second year clearly missed that class and as another student was walking over to tell him why it was a bad idea to spin up a bearing on his little finger with compressed air regardless of the cool noise it made, it seized and twisted his fingat straight off. I didn't see the end result but the high pitched whizzing whine of the bearing was replaced by a high pitched wheezing scream from the student. Didn't see him again after that.
