If you’ve decided to skip Step 2, you can move on to this step. If you’re dealing with a really thick section of bed liner, then you can use an angle grinder fitted with a wire wheel to get it off. This process is incredibly effective, but also time-consuming. STEP 4: HEAT IT...
For a textured top, you can optionally use a wire brush with an angle grinder to add detail. Sand the entire table with 120-grit sandpaper for a smooth finish. Lastly, apply a watered-down, weathered wood accelerator to achieve a stunning aged brown look. ...
Knife sharpening is a very tricky thing to get right when you are a beginner but is also a very important step in the knife-making process. I normally choose to use a belt sander or angle grinder to taper the edge down until I am satisfied with the sharpness. Although using a belt san...

The most obvious new parameter is one that stores the angle between 2 faces. We will also need the vertical height of a triangle segment, but rather than setting that to a fixed value, we can use trigonometry to define it astan(60)*(sideLength/2).This is because the angles in an equ...
to happen all that often – perhaps only once or twice a year, even with heavy use. The good news is that an ordinary, inexpensive bench grinder can do a great job preparing plane irons, as long as you upgrade the tool rest and the grinding wheel. A generous size, easy bevel angle ...
forming a 30-½º or 45-½º angle on each, which causes the clearances to become slightly lessened. (As the valves wears into the seats, forming a perfect seal, you may notice the engine produces slightly more power.) And for an engine (valves) that’s been in use for some ...
