Grand Tour - Europe 2024
I decided to set up a museum so here's the story of how I gathered together a collection of educational car models. All I need now is a building to put them in!
A huge thanks to all for making this trip possible.

    • @WobbleMatic
      @WobbleMatic ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep, it should go through grey cast iron (generally grey is used in piano frames/harps). Should be easier to cut than steel. A long blade with 15-18 teeth per inch should perform ok. Just make sure it’s a metal cutting blade. And good luck!

    I'm 71 years old and have used tools pretty regularly. It was yesterday that I found out about this. Funny thing is that over the weekend I bought a set of extensions needing to get to a bolt head in a hard to reach place and I just now looked at it and it's a set of wobble extensions - it was written small enough on the package that I didn't notice. But I am feeling kinda cool now that I own a set. 😃👍

      You’re not wrong, I find that I damage them easily rather than wear them out. I think it’s more of a special use tool especially when it comes to metal work. Cutting wood or pvc would be way easier and the blades would definitely last then.

Is this something that all recipoicating saws and hacksaws have been able to do or is this just due to the advent of brushless motors at least in the wireless space? Can mains ones do it? It seemed so clean an exercise. It made you wonder if apart from cheapnesss of consumables for thicker steel whether angle grinding is necessary. It has always been this high torque at low revs which has meant that most diy level tool price points seem underpowered according to information on youtube videos along with the concern of destroying the expensive blades prematurely due to runout or heat in a higher rpm tool be it circular saw, band saw or cnc mill/lathe. Shame there is no interchangeable motor that could be used in all the tools to be able to cut metal

    Hello! Im back with another stupid question, dont know if you said already but whats the difference between negative and earth? What little experience I have with it is from vehicles and I get that negative goes on the minus pole and earth is grounded in the frame, but where does a earth line typically start and why does most aftermarket accessories only have a earth and not a negative, while mains powered things seems to always have both as separate wires?

    • @WobbleMatic
      @WobbleMatic ปีที่แล้ว

      Hei fra irland Terminology is probably the biggest issue between the two. In a vehicle the positive comes through the wiring looms and negative comes through the chassis, the negative side of the vehicle battery is connected via a strap to the chassis. This makes up the electrical circuit. The negative is sometimes called ground or earth but it shouldn't really be. Vehicles don't have an earth or ground connection. In mains wiring the circuit is made up of the live and neutral wires and the earth wire does not form part of this circuit unless something goes way wrong, they are purely a safety feature. Earth wires are connected to a rod in the ground hence the name earth/ground. Typically the earth wire is connected to any part that the user may come in contact with and it's purpose is to create such a large current draw that it will burn out any fuse due to heat or trip circuit breakers. You may come across appliances with no earth (these are commonly called double insulated or Class 2 appliances) and they are designed in such a way that live current cannot ever come into contact with the housing (unless dropped in water). Hope this makes sense.
