Got a new tool
« on: April 19, 2015, 08:16:00 PM »
Actually I bought part of this a looong time ago.

Didn't think it would work all that well after I bought it, so it laid around the tool box til today when I started shaping TD #2.

This riser block of bocote is one of those gummy blocks , and was filling sandpaper on my spindle sander like crazy.

So I saw the old idea laying there, and went ahead and put it together.

I started shaping on the riser about 2:30 this afternoon and just sprayed it just now....

Back with pics of the secret weapon soon....   :D

Sorry , hadda spray another coat....

This is the tool used to rough up tires to parch, but I mated it to my cordless drill .

It has a 3/8" hole in it, I used a 5/16 carriage bolt, rounded the squares just enough to start in the bigger hole.

Put a 2" bolt in,a 1/2" nut on back so the washer and nut would pull down tight.

 

 

Grinds the heck out of bocote, wasn't hard to control,run as fast as you want. Plugged up a little, but could prob soak in mineral spirits and blow clean.

A 3" bolt might be OK for clearance.

NOT OSHA APPROVED!! Leather gloves might be OK too....  :D

Looks like two of them should be used together.

Used to use those on truck and tractor tires. Hooked up to a high speed air powered tool. Sure wood take wood off in a hurry.

Does anyone use the 3M Scotchbrite pads that are impregnated with abrasives? They are similar to the above but you can get them in a range of grits and they leave a really cool textured finish.
