And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I use a battery powered Ryobi angle grinder all the time and it seems to work fine, though it does seem to shorten the tool's life. Is that it, the tendency to over-grind?
I looked up the difference between a hatchet and an axe, I was curious.
>A hatchet shouldn't be confused with a hand ax. A hatchet technically is an ax yet it has a hammer-head or a butt on the back-side of the blade while an ax should not. A hand ax has a broad flat area, like a wedge shape, and without the v-shape cut out of the blade. ... An ax can have the same length handle as a hatchet.<
Yup, no axe should ever touch an electric grinder.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious, why?
