Checker Tools air system
« on: May 23, 2004, 01:51:24 PM »
Has anyone else used an air system to blow the dust away while checkering?  I have a picture file at www.hunt101. com with some examples of tools.  Search (Les Brooks projects) then click to see all pictures.  Click on thumbnail.

I've always used a small brush to wipe away the dust.  You sort of get a rythm of wipe look away, look back cut some more.  It seemed to give my eyes the rest they needed and the bigger motion helped with cramping..

like Gunut said a small brush has always been all I needed you cant go fast enough to generate too much dust anyhow checkering is a slow process at best. :D   JIM
