The problems with having employees, I agree with. As far as letting them use the tool, probably not. The table saw is no less dangerous. Not to open the conversation to fire arms but I think the analogy applies. The danger is in the unskilled operator and if warning bells are going off it is with good reason, if you're not comfortable with operating this then don't. There aren't many power tools in my shop that won't eat me if I don't pay attention. I see these kids at the lumber store using a 12" radial arm saw and I cringe. Might as well give someone a gun and tell them to go play.</DIV> <DIV>So let me qualify my recommendation of this tool. If you are not skilled in it's operation and do not understand and respect basic power tool safety, DON"T USE POWER TOOLS. My recommendation only, far be it from me to tell people what they should or shouldn't do.</DIV> <DIV>Some basic safety rules regarding the use of this tool would include but not necessarily be limited to.</DIV> <DIV>Free and clear work area.</DIV> <DIV>Eye, ear and lung safety gear.</DIV> <DIV>Electrical cord free and clear.</DIV> <DIV>Check router collett and tighten and check cutter.</DIV> <DIV>Cutter needs to be sharp.</DIV> <DIV>Use both hands.</DIV> <DIV>Run at proper speed.</DIV> <DIV>No climbing cuts. ( make sure router is loading itself into the bearing, not trying to climb out of the cut.)</DIV> <DIV>Do not move until the router stops, then remove router bit from the cut.</DIV> <DIV>If a power cord snags, release trigger and wait for router to stop.</DIV> <DIV>If your uncomfortable with your position or have to reposition your stance as you work across the stretcher, stop the router and wait for it to stop.</DIV> <DIV>This is an advanced level tool and operation and not for beginners. But it works great. I think it's way safer than trying to demo with a skill saw, that baby will kick out of there.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>All this being said, I am definitely going to try spirit removal. (Exorcism)</DIV> <DIV>Man I'm long winded.</DIV> <DIV>BTW, Ed said he went back to the pinblock finished it's removal. Did he use the router? </DIV> <DIV>Ed, are you going to give up on the Bolduc cutter, or stick with it?</DIV> <DIV>Fenton</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black">From: <A title=surfdog@metrocast.net href="mailto:surfdog@metrocast.net">Will Truitt</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">To: <A title=pianotech@ptg.org href="mailto:pianotech@ptg.org">'Pianotech List'</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">Sent: Wednesday, August 06, 2008 3:35 AM</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">Subject: RE: More pinblock stuff</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV class=Section1> Hi Fenton:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I think that what scares me about this tool is that there simply is no margin for error, ever.    It only respects perfect technique at ALL times, and is going to spank you in unforeseen and possibly dire ways if you do not execute perfect technique – Ed’s accident proves my point.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Some questions I would ask myself:  Would you allow an employee to use this tool (if you had one)?   A family member?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I used to have a couple of employees in my business.  As the owner/manager of my business, I (properly I think) considered myself my most valuable asset to my business because of my developed skill set and level of responsibilities.   I would never have allowed an employee to use such a tool – the time savings are simply not worth the consequences of failed execution.  If the employee has an accident, I can guarantee that the labor board, OSHA, the insurance company; none of those people are going to be understanding.  Your Workman’s Comp will be canceled or go through the roof, OSHA would slap big fines on you, the employee is out of work for a week, etc. etc.   So, if I am not willing to risk an employee (who has less value to my business than me), why would I be willing to risk myself?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Most accidents that any of us have are the result of simple stupidity, but they happen anyway.  Why tempt fate when Murphy is always nearby?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> If the tool had (God Forbid) instead ricocheted into his face and took out an eye, the consequences for him would be far worse in terms of work loss and loss of income.  Does Ed have Disability Insurance?  Is his health insurance adequate?  (I’m asking these as rhetorical questions).<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Paul’s comment, “That tool is wonderful but damned scary; everytime I turn it on I feel like "this could be the last one”, says it all for me – the warning flags are up, the horns are beeping, and the robot is going off,  “Danger, Danger, Will Robinson – alien life forms approaching!!!”.  <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I make no pretense as to being a lawyer, but I would not even consider selling or manufacturing such a tool for reasons of liability.  If companies can get sued and lose such suits for items seemingly as innocuous as toys, what chance would a tool maker have in a court with this tool?  I cannot imagine that it has met any safety standards that our regulatory agencies would consider adequate.  <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> As such, I do not think it  wise to advocate the use of this tool to anyone.  Individually, you are free to assume the risk if you so choose.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> In my hierarchy of risk, I’d much rather wack on the stretcher with the mallot.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Respectfully,<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Will Truitt<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <DIV> <DIV style="BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; BORDER-TOP: #b5c4df 1pt solid; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; PADDING-TOP: 3pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none"> From: pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org] On Behalf Of Fenton Murray Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2008 8:10 PM To: Pianotech List Subject: Re: More pinblock stuff<o:p></o:p></DIV></DIV> <o:p> </o:p> <DIV> Continuing on this thread of safety and with good wishes to Ed. This tool is not dangerous if used correctly. Even thinking about removing it from the cut before stopping invites serious kick back. So, it's about following some safety rules. Studying the safe operation of tools before using them will make you a safe operator. I'd agree with you will that safety rule #1 is "mind fresh and concentration is good". I use this tool and love it.

But it's extremely dangerous just as any unwisely used tool is; a tuning hammer won't kill you, but if used improperly can slowly kill your joints. The router blade is big, the speeds are high, and the torque is surprising every time. It takes a great deal of concentration. Others' really regrettable injuries are simply further proof of the object lessons of proper and improper tool use.  We're all really lucky that Ed's still with us to share the knowledge and warnings.
