Hi all...nice to have an excuse to post again....
Remember me...the VERY lucky centre puncher
http://www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum/...ylinder-head-bolt-with-5mm-sticking-up.58532/
I recently bought a 115mm angle grinder and having put a slotted diamond disk in it to cut bricks was quite impressed with how few I wasted compared to hammering and chiselling. It wasn't deep enough though so I've now got a 9inch one. I was trying to see which way around the non-slotted diamond disk went because the arrow said negative rake <----\\\ but I thought positive \\\\--->.
where \\\\ are the "teeth" viewed at the bottom of the disk....I was wrong, looking at lot's of ebay ads for similar disks i.e. they all seem to rotate with the teeth swept back.
On my "travels" I came across numerous horror stories and recommendations...One was wear goggles AND full face shield.
I've been racking my brains re who to ask re specs for the safest stuff when I hit me that this is probably the best place to come, particularly after the fantastic response I got to my last cry for help.
Any help much appreciated.
As an aside I now have a NuTool 140 from the local car boot for a tenner (i.e. I remember someone saying I needed 130+amps).
It's the one with a blue plastic case.
I haven't had the chance to try it yet but it's there when I get the time.
