I was cutting and filing some aluminium canopy brackets at the weekend =
and kept thinking about an article I had read a couple of months ago.
It said under no circumstances should you ever grind aluminium. I don't, =
simply because I know it will clog wheels or discs. I was trying to =
think of the reasons. Health, aluminium contributes I think to =
Parkinsons Disease. Explosion, I could see this with magnesium.
Any of you machinists have any idea.
