What I learned today
 
Strange !!!

The whole reason it is called a die grinder is that it is used to
grind and shape tool steel in the hands of a tool and die maker as
he makes a die for punch press work.

Unless you’re going to be working with VERY soft materials do not

No matter what the outcome, I consider a day that I learn SOMETHING to be a
