there fast enough and rasp metal of quite quickly. a lot faster than using a bench grinderI have a very nice RJH bandfacer that I have barely used. Is it any good for metal removal or mainly for woodworking? Will it radius corners in thick steel with a very coarse belt? Or is it too slow?
if the drive belt and sanding belt shouldnt slip if its tight enough even under pressureThanks all, my new belts arrived and I’ve fitted one without ruining it! Waiting for the DOL and contractor to arrive then it’ll be another job done.
Worse than that don't use it for alumimium & then steel as you have an explosive mixture [which the railways use for welding track together] & it can explode on you [unless you clean it out]They will hog metal down absolutely fine, Top tip if you are going to use it for metal dont use it for wood as well. These machines have a habit of collecting fine dust inside in corners etc & sparks will set the dust alight.
That is thermite! It doesn't explode - burns very well thoughWorse than that don't use it for alumimium & then steel as you have an explosive mixture [which the railways use for welding track together] & it can explode on you [unless you clean it out]
