non conducting washers
« on: January 12, 2006, 01:39:31 PM »
I was returning a holesaw to its bin ( unusual, according to my wife *hehe)

while bemoaning another trip to the hardware to get some non-conducting washers for shims when I noticed a plastic ice cream pain..hmm....

hole saw+plastic pail= all kinda washers,shims, whatever

I've made many out of scraps of plexiglass too. Even works on harder rubbers. Try old shoe soles.

The old-timer next door uses a band saw for plexi, squirts some motor oil where he wants to cut, works great.
