Wow, just watch the video and it was so educational. Just goes to show the proper tool to cut aluminum stock IS an abrasive chop saw and then it is OKAY to clean aluminum with an abrasive bench grinder. Stupid me, I wasted monies on bandsaws, files and supposedly more accurate layout devices when all I ever needed was a simple ruler, a pencil, a nail and a hammer. Who'd a thunk it???
(Actually the drilled hole looked fairly centered)
A claw hammer at that
(the hole did look central)
Not to mention the jewelry and long hair

well the nale bit did it for me
I liked the white T shirt showing in exactly the area where it would pick up the most grime. I also noticed the safety glasses dangling under those two bumps but I didn't notice whether or not they were put on for the drilling (I'm not going back to review the video, it was too painful).
The nail center punch and clawhammer were nice touches.
Was this video done to boost the confidence of some of the klutzyer members of this forum (self included)?
Come on! give her a breake, she must be good at eyeballing things,
at least, she drilled, before tapping.
humorus, indeed.

That's the only time she used the safety glasses.

Protecting the most valuable um, ah,... assets!

Ignoring you lewd types
Scary that this sort of thing is out there on the web. That grind stone will get bound with the aluminium, there is a distinct possibility that the wheel will explode next time it's used for heavy grinding as the surface will overheat.
Talking of overheating - she presented nicely
Damn you Tom for dredging this up from the bottom of the MWF barrel
Given that I missed it the first time around, I felt compelled to watch it. There is eight minutes of my life I'll never get back!
Her choice and use of tooling was outshone only by her lack of command of the English language. As Steve put it: "painful"
Ed - what the hell were you thinking?
Ok..........never mind.
(But you have to admit. the tapping demonstration was quite entertaining)
