Question: What materials should
be sanded with aluminum oxide Abrasives? What materials
should be sanded with silicon carbide?
Answer: Ha! Trick question.
All materials can be sanded with silicon carbide (except
diamonds). Aluminum oxide will not abrade masonry, tile
or stone, but will abrade wood and metal.
Question: What is a nail shake
and who uses it?
Answer: A nail shake
is a container that holds and aligns nails, so they
can be removed easily, one at a time, point down, head
up. Pre-historic (well, pre-pneumatic nailer) roofers
use them. (Nail shakres are going the way of the dinosaur.)
Question: Why is
it important to ground your woodshop's dust collection
system?
Answer: Dust particles
traveling in ductwork genereate static electricity.
If that electricity can be dissapated to a ground, it
will continue to build until it causes a spark that
will likely explode your d.c. system. (That would be
bad. and your insurance agent wuld wonder why you let
your d.c. system burn down your house.)
