Hey if you need it to use the tool on site, then what choice do you have..?

 

[Tomtiler]

go into a room when the agents not there and use it thats what we had to do the full morrisons we were on as my dust extractor took ages to come not ideal but better than leaving all the checks out :lol:

If you work in a factory you would need a ticket for putting a wheel on a grinder..

it's a piece of nonsense m8. But if you need it you need it. You won't learn any thing from it that isn't common sense.

I did this as part of my college course when I was 16, it basically goes through the different types of grinding discs eg/ green wheels and how you're supposed to 'inspect' a wheel before you use it and that they are self shapening etc.

Also if you hold a wheel up and tap it with a wooden hammer handle you are supposed to know that if its sounds 'dead' its about to shatter in mid use.

I have a certificate and everything. rrr:
