spring compressors attacking are nothing compared to.....................


angle grinders.............


made some bonnet lifters on my old XR4x4 using a bootlid gas strut, needed to put a flatside on it, so out with the angle grinder while the gas strut was in the vice, started taking material off and all of a suden it went boooooooooom, blew the angle grinder out of my hand, blew the disc in bits, smashed the head clean off the vice and took the garage window out with it, also had bleeding ears for the rest of the day


lesson to you all - never touch gas struts with an angle grinder unless you want to die
