December 28, 200520 yr Author comment_92180 Thanks mate. I'll make a list of that and try to track it all down. What rpm do dremel moto tool copies spin at? Anticipation is killing me I just want to shred this head hahaha. Report
December 28, 200520 yr comment_92196 the one i have (ozito) goes from 8000 to 35000 RPM. don't try to run them flat out with sanding rolls or they go verrZING! find a comfortable speed and let the abrasives do the work. goggles are a must. Report
December 28, 200520 yr comment_92204 yeah, buy a good set of goggles. i have walked around for 4 days with a shard of metal stuck in my eye because i was too stupid to use them with the angle grinder. i also then had to endure the pain of my girlfriend taking the piece out the top of my eyeball with tweezers and a toothpick goggles :) Report
December 28, 200520 yr Author comment_92222 I can't believe it took you bad experiences to realise you have to wear goggles haha. I love them almost as much as the grinder itself. But ouch, I never want to have to have shit scraped off my eye ow. Report
December 28, 200520 yr Author comment_92226 prevention is better than any cure :D haha, slow learners and you call yourself corolla modifiers :) You have to think quick and be irrational to own a corolla :( Mmmmmm, grinder. On topic again, what affects does the heat have on the metal? can it also damage or change the properties if you stay on one spot too long etc.? Don't want to have any problems ;) lol. Report
January 8, 200620 yr Author comment_94921 haha man we got off topic. But yeah, going to see if I can visit that engineering place that Kangaroosa recommended sometime in the next 2 weeks. I'll tell you how it goes. Report

On topic again, what affects does the heat have on the metal? can it also damage or change the properties if you stay on one spot too long etc.? Don't want to have any problems :y: lol. yes, but i'm not sure what effect it would have (hardening/softeneing, etc) on head alloy. that's part of the reason you don't cut springs with an angle grinder, it changes the tempering of the metal. get stewart to sign up and post here Report
January 8, 200620 yr Author comment_94928 I've told him about rc a few times but it never gets through. I shall try again. Yeah, metallurgists anywhere? Noone on here lol? Report
January 9, 200620 yr comment_95107 Troy i just read the lot and you said your engine was going to be toyota? wtf anyhuu i think that a dremel would be the best for you because you will use it on many heads to come and maybe i could borrow it sometime hey :P don't forget whenever you are going to buy tools go and see dave first and he will give you a huge discount. Cheers. PS stop wasting time on matts ghey pulsar and work on the 55. GL with the metal patching :rocknroll: Report
January 10, 200620 yr comment_95193 swarf in your eye and rust in another, you should start up an off topic injury thread or something. sounds nasty! :dance: USE GOGGLES :harhar: engineers cost to much to even just come out and look at it. Report
January 11, 200620 yr Author comment_95352 Yes engineering is pricey...it sucks. And hokey keep your mouth shut boy, go talk to your uncle or something :harhar: :) Yeah thanks I forgot about dave. :dance: Report
