Portable Dremel for Carbon Fiber Safety

Portable Dremel for Carbon Fiber Safety

This parts is registered in3people

Working with carbon fiber indoors is very dangerous to one's health, safety is easy and inexpensive! Living in NYC, I can safely cut fiber/carbon/frp parts in the OUTDOOR trash area of my apartment building. Here's my rig: 1: dust mask, carbon fiber is very dangerous to breathe. 2: Latex gloves, carbon fiber dust embeds in your skin and can cause serious health issues. Also, wear long sleeves and wash your clothes after working. 3: $9 Rotary tool! Very cheap. (harbor freight), important part 12v DC. (Nice Proxxon tools have same 12v model if you prefer) 4: 12v battery, I simply use the same batteries from my cordless drill! I soldered a little power plug using spare electronics I had- be creative! Now, I can take this outside quickly in a little box, and cut carbon fiber and frp any time! Overall cost without battery, less than $25. Be careful not to work where children or pets play, and have fun!
