Please...need help...ONE last electrical discussion...
I'm new to woodworking, and thought I'd try here for advice first.
I just inherited my grandfather's tools, and one of them is an old Uniswaw. It's down in my basement now, and I would like to hook it up, but all the outlets down there are two-prongers and the saw is obviously three. If I were to run a piece of wire from the cabinet of the saw over to one of the exposed water pipes, would that be enough grounding for me to be able to safely cut-off the third prong? Also, if this is safe, how big a wire should I run? (The saw is 110 volts, BTW) Thanks, Greg |
