In other words, improper acetylene storage is a problem that solves itself.

As the employee moved the grinder, the power cord became entangled around a wheel, which pulled the cord tight against the machine and cut the power cord. The exposed live wires made contact with the frame of the grinder and energized it with 3-phase/460 volts. At some point, the employee's legs made contact with the energized frame and the employee was killed by electrocution. Jokerpilled Drudge fucked around with this message at 12:22 on Jun 7, 2021 |

Memento posted:Grinders also generate lots of heat, and if they're not extracted properly, lots of metal dust. Not too hard to manage but the potential for a fire or explosion is there. Plus, the metal dust will gently caress your lungs up if you don't manage it properly as well. The sheet metal department at work managed to light their grinder ventilation system on fire once. That was fun. They put the fire out quickly but the fire department hosed it down to make sure nothing was smoldering. Jerks stole my floor squeegee, mops, and vacuum to clean up so I had to walk on wet and oily floors the rest of the night. Water on top of oil on top of painted concrete is not a fun surface to work on.

WTYP is hit or miss but if you don’t listen too closely, they have the energy and attitude of a bunch of chuds talking about a kegger except half the time it’s something woke and that is intrinsically funny to me. Franklin is better though.

The problem with acetylene is it becomes essentially a heat and shock sensitive explosive when its pressure exceeds 29 psi. It is stored around 300 psi by desolving it in acetone. Acetylene regulators only go up to 15 psi for this reason. Also I have to assume the tank outlet is designed to prevent high pressure between the bottle and the regulator or you'd have gas at tank pressure there.

If you put the tanks on their side the acetylene can come out of the solution with the acetone and create dangerous pockets of liquid acetylene. Thankfully all you have to do is tip it back upright and avoid using it for one minute per minute it was on its side, up to one day. If you run out in the middle of a project you shouldn't just run out and swap tanks and get right back to work: you should let it settle for an hour or two even if you transported it upright. You need to keep the flow rate to 1/10th the capacity of the tank per hour. (1/7th was the old rule) When you open the valve, the acetylene bubbles out of the internal sponge material. If you exceed the flow limit you'll remove acetone from the tank and acetone is what keeps the acetylene stable.

I guess every acetylene tank holds at least 10 hours of gas, huh?

Bertha the Toaster posted:Was he always this unhinged? Yeah, you just don't see it in his older videos this blatantly though. After the last year of covid and knowing how much dumb poo poo he's gone through with his wife I can see how it would make him just put it all out there now. Not excusing anything, but I can understand why he'd just lay all his cards flat on the table and say gently caress it. Either way, yeah, there's been some info circulate in years past on some of his antics on other forums and none of this is surprising.

Bench grinders can also be dangerous because the wheel releases some of the heat built up through friction by ablation. If you use soft metals on the wrong wheels then the wheel doesn't wear away and at the same time pieces of soft metal are being transferred to the wheel. It won't be able to release heat and it can potentially break through heat stress, probably while it's still spinning and your fleshy meat bits are manipulating something around it. I've never been party to that happening so I'm not sure if the risk is overstated, but I spent a lot of time kicking people off bench grinders at my last job

My sister's kids all learned "hot" quickly as toddlers, so any time they were doing something dangerous (like grabbing for a knife), it'd be "hot, stay away!"

I had this happen to a battery in a campervan (although not quite as extreme); just started shooting sulphuric steam everywhere. Then the fuse box went on fire. At the time my neighbour was a rally car engineer and he came to the rescue and helped me pull the thing but it was completely hosed. Turns out the specialist company that had installed the electrics in our van were loving morons - they had installed a bunch of electrics designed for an older VW camper in a modern vehicle which put out 3x as much, and somehow hosed up the wiring of the split charging on top so it just popped the battery.
