That’s one way of testing my workshop installation dropped me chisel on an extension lead....chisel lost ?

butterfingers., lol.lol. 3 bloody words.

Other than the bit blown out, that looks like a nice chisel edge!

 

[Andy78]

What a shame, looks like a nice well looked after chisel. RCD on the circuit ? I'm guessing not. Tut tut

 

[telectrix]

nothing that a bench grinder can't fix. or... keep it as is for intricate wood carving

most of us test RCDs with a MFT. you just had to be different. . we all bored shitless but that's going too far. next it will be testing if the cat lands on it's feet after dropping from 40 ft.

Bit of insulation tape and that extension will be good as new.

It’ll be fine if only a few metres shorter ?

I've got a whole box of moulding planes here, perhaps we can make something!

 

[Baddegg]

Could’ve been worse as I had me flip flops on ?

i hear Ikea are recruiting. apparently they need someone who can tell wood from MDF

 

[Baddegg]

Should’ve done that before all this!.....I’d be sat in doors now on 80% ?

 

[buzzlightyear]

have you applied to DIY area lol what's the chances of that happening again. Lol

 

[telectrix]

would have been more fun if you'd dropped the chisel on your bare foot and posted a blood scene.

Well he had a 2 in 3 chance of testing the RCD action, but as luck would have it...

Still, here is a pro tip - if you drop a soldering iron do not try to catch it!

 

[HappyHippyDad]

I'm guessing the short must have been between L-N to take that chunk out?
Can you actually see on the cable what the short was?

 

[freddo]

There are at lest 2 photos on this thread showing the cable damage to the 2 core flex...
