We were a tad more mild in my carpenter days.

We raced belt sanders by hooking them to a switched outlet.

I'll admit that I cheated by dewinding the motor on my 3x24 Rockwell.

That was a screamin' bitch of a racer...for a few races...(rip)...

De-winding a motor? Sounds kind of Tim Allen-ish, can you explain?
