Good Grief Bob.... a variable speed Grinder???!!!!!!
Bwahahahahahahaaaaaa!!!


A brand new Porter Cable POLSIHER #
| 7336SP is 2500-6000 RPM.

Are you going to get one and use it as a "grinder"...????
Bwahahahahahahahaaaa!!!


| Unless your boat is pretty new, you'll be using the upper RPM ranges once
you

Yeah... sure there Tim the Tool man! You'll need the 10k RPM to put wax on
older hulls!!

Bwahahahahahahaaaaa!!

Some grinders do up to 10'000 rpm fixed with NO load,
| and even that's fine with a big pad. It slows down a lot when applying
| wax/compound. Even skilled autoshops will use them, though paint buring is
a
| risk.

I can't even begin to tell you how totally wrong this entire statement is
Bob.... not without picturing your "Professional Grade Variable Speed B&D
Grinder!!!!!! Bwahahahahahahahaaa!!


| Sorry, BOB CARROL. I actually own and use these tools, so you can't come

You're not poping my balloon at all Max.... I have an almost identical
grinder in the lathe shop as Bob's... it's a B&D but it's not variable and
it's a brute. My B&D 1/2" drill is over 15 years old.

Now the question is would you use a grinder as a polisher.... or would you
label a grinder as "Professional Grade"???

Bob's just having some fun and so am I!

God forbid some newbie to sailing takes a cue from Bob and tries "buffing" a
hull at 10K RPM with a Grinder!!!......

I concur on DeWalt.... I only buy their tools now. No questions asked and
both problems over the last 5 years.... both tools were past the warranty
date and were serviced for free... one repair and one replacement. They
replaced my plunge-router which was a refurb with a brand new upgraded
model.

You just can't beat after market service like that! The tools are well
built.

I found the 18V circular a bit light for most wood work. I also found the
batteries tend to go quick under prolonged and constant loads. Nice tools
for a quick job or repair though. Great for around the boatyard.

To bad Bobsprit isn't allowed to work on his boat at the boatyard. He'd buy
a set in a jiffy!

Grit??? Grit!!!! Bwahahahahahahahaaaaa. Ever hear of rubbng compound Bob?


And there you have it, folks. Mooron SURE knows boats.
Anyone with a copy of casey's This Old Boat may turn to page 45 for the correct
answer, under restoration of gelcoat. 220 wet is usually the best bet, though
I've usually gotten gel back with finer grit. A badly oxidized hull can often
be recovered this way. Worked great on the Cape Dory for instance.
You'd think that Mooron would know this, but then he's known soooo little since
his return.

Mooron...you are SOOOO BEAT!

Sure, you can use a grinder as a polisher... as long as you either
don't mind the surface looking ground rather than polished, or if
you're too stupid to know the difference. Guess which applies to
Bubbles? Don't forget, he's nuts!

You do realize don't you that that device is an inverter?

I said it could be adapted and I also listed a second unit that works out of

You lose.

Scott was looking for a way to charge his batteries/run his drill
directly off the boat batteries, without the use of an inverter.
You jumped on BBs' coat tails and made like you knew what you were
talking about. So tell me, if you had to use a 7805 to get 9.6 V
from a 12 V input, what size of resisters you use in the divider
to 'lift' the ground leg and which side of the regulator would you
place them, for extra points explain why. Go ahead, answer that and
prove that you know something about basic electronics.

While you're at it see if you can't to learn to put more than
one point in a reply and thereby shorten the threads to which

Hey Nutsy,

I started out trying to grind out the epoxy tar coating on the bottom of
my boat last summer. After loading up the grit on a 1/2 dozen disc on
about a sguare foot of bottom I called it a day and turned it over to
the Yard to be pealed. A rotary grinder is hopeless.

I've seen (Younger men than me) do racing hulls with long board orbitals
do some beautiful finishes but its just to much work for me.

I'll ask you what size grit you used for the bottom of those boats you
say you've done?

Marty, I like your desperate attempt after I proved you wrong. As I said, radio

voltages. They even have different tips to fit. You got busted and now want a

To which job, Thom? We used chemicals (A gell remover I don't recall at the
moment) with faired paint scrapers to remove most of the paint from a few
boats, then finished with 220 wet to bring the gel back. Final step is the 3M
paste and wheel on the grinder at low-moderate speeds. It was a lot of work,
but it really came out nice.
As for the boat bottoms, I'm done doing that. It's a really unhealthy job and
my yard is cutting me a good deal. We used to make the long sanding boards as
well. Backbraking nasty work, especially for someone as tall as me.

Nutsy take a look at the heading on the subject; 12V DRILLS. We are

Why in the world would anybody that has a battery powered tool lock it
up on boat without power for the winter?

You "BUSTED YOURSELF"

You'll send pictures in the Spring; You mean when you can gather,beg,
barrow or steal all these great, best of the line battery driven tools
you are supposed to have. Are they locked on the boat without power and
the batteries are going dead.

You're not doing any house maintenance this winter then because you
can't get to your tools

You "BUSTED YOURSELF"

Your car won't be polished until next Spring? Oh,Oh;

Busted again; You've caught yourself talking out your asshole once again

All those pages about 12Volt tools in the ASA is nothing but Pure Bull

quality tools. I bought a Fein detail sander yesterday at a woodworking
show. It should last forever.
