General Safety Rules ! WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury, user must read the instruction manual. ! WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 1) Work area safety a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. 2) Electrical safety a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. 3) Personal safety a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Do not allow familiarity gained from frequent use of a tool to replace safe work practices. A moment of carelessness is sufficient to cause severe injury. c) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. d) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. e) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. f) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. g) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. h) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards. 4) Power tool use and care a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect power tool operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep all guards and safety devices in place, properly adjusted, and in good working order. g) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. h) Use the power tool, accessories, bits, and blades in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. i) Never stand on the tool. Serious injury could occur if the tool tips or if cutting edges are accidentally contacted. j) Never leave a running tool unattended. Turn off the power and do not leave the tool until moving parts come to a complete stop. 5) Service a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. 6) Additional Safety Rules for the Precision Band Saw Fence a) Read this manual and these safety guidelines. Follow the saw manufacturer’s safety guidelines. Learn the applications and limitations of the tool as well as the hazards specific to it. Operating the tool before understanding safe and proper use could result in personal injury. b) Ensure that the lock knob is tight and the fence extrusion T-knobs are secure prior to starting the band saw. c) Keep hands away from the moving blade when operating the machine. Never reach behind the moving blade to clear debris. d) Always support long boards on both the infeed and the outfeed end of the blade. e) Always securely hold workpieces against the table and fence. f) This fence system is designed for a specific application. Do not modify and/or use it for any other application. If you have questions about the band saw fence, DO NOT use it until you contact Kreg Tool Company and receive advice. !

    GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS for DRILL SYSTEM DESIGN Ma1cohn Mellor and Paul V. Selhnann U.S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineeri

    Reproduced from Ice-Core Drilling edited by John F. Splettstoesser by permission of the University of Nebraska Press. Copyright 1976 by the University of Nebraska Press. Copyright renewed 2004 by the University of Nebraska Press. GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR DRILL SYSTEM DESIGN Ma1cohn Mellor and Paul V. Selhnann U.S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory Hanover, New Hampshire 03755 ABSTRACT Drilling systems are discussed in general terms, component functions common to all systems are identified, and a simple classification is drawn up in order to outline relations between penetra­ tion, material removal, hole wall support, and ground conditions. Energy and power requirements for penetration of ice and frozen ground are analyzed for both mechanical and thermal processes. Power requirements for removal of material and for hoisting of drill strings are considered, and total power requirements for complete systems are assessed. Performance data for drilling sys­ tems working in ice and frozen ground are reviewed, and results are analyzed to obtain specific energy values. Specific energy data are assembled for drag-bit cutting, normal impact and indenta­ tion, liquid jet attack, and thermal penetration. Torque and axial force capabilities of typical rotary drilling systems are reviewed and analyzed. The overall intent is to provide data and quan­ titative guidance that can lead to systematic design procedures for drilling systems for cold regions. INTRODUCTION Drilling involves an enormous range of highly specialized processes, products, and technolo­ gies, making it difficult to assimilate all the information required for solution of particular drill­ ing problems. This difficulty is very pronounced in the case of problems that involve frozen ground and massive ice, since existing drilling systems are likely to require modification to meet the special ground conditions.

    A Pin Vise, Version 1.1

    Garbage Into Gold: A Pin Vise, Version 1.1 By R. G. Sparber Protected by Creative Commons.1 About thirty years ago, I pulled a small box full of broken toy drills out of the garbage. Most were beyond salvaging, but I did rescue two really crappy drill chucks. These chucks had terrible run-out and a very limited range. On the plus side, they had a ¼-20 thread. Diving into my junk drawer, I retrieved a piece of pipe nipple, a coupler, and a plug. I drilled and tapped the plug ¼-20 and screwed in a bolt from the inside. Assembly took no time at all. 1 This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.

If you are new to the metalworking hobby, you are probably asking yourself, “what good it this?” Here are a few answers. Hopefully, others will add to the list. Do notice that none of these uses are high precision nor put a lot of force on the pin vise. • Finishing the end of a short rod – you may be tempted to hold a short rod in your fingers as you run the end against a bench grinder’s wheel, polishing wheel, or a belt sander. Beyond probably getting a burn from the hot metal, you can slip and take off a bit of finger.
