Thread: What about this new grinding mask

What are these people thinking..



Never a dull moment i spose.....
Worked in PNG on the shipyards and stuff like this is considered fairly common practice...well maybe not this stupid but not fair off... Was in there once and guy pulled over a pair of G? size (big bottles) of oxy/accetylene and the reg snapped off, gas pissing out all over the place right next to a bloke that was grinding with a 9". Everyone in the place just cheered the bloke that did and went back to work... Crazy/scary stuff..

Cheers

Yeah, there is come strange stuff happening at times. I once saw a guy put a 14"cutoff wheel on a 9" grinder. Needless to say it exploded about 30 seconds after he started it. One piece went through the roof 10m above us, one piece hit an old man in the back of the leg and just mashed the flesh without breaking his trousers, the rest was never found


Yes, some strange stuff.
