For PPE safety display, can anybody give me "shattered" tools
For PPE safety display, can anybody give me "shattered" tools
(OP)
I want to set up a permanent PPE "Yes, it can happen to you" safety display in our training facility, and elsewhere across the engineering offices if I can get enough samples of shredded, broken, shattered, blown up or destroyed machining tools in the display?
Obviously, many tools fail, and (almost) all of them are immediately thrown away.
How can I get my hands on 20 - 30 of these broken items bits, reamers, grinding heads, milling heads, drills, etc to put in the display case?
In this case, the more badly broken or shattered the better the impression of the constant need for PPE - but I want to impress on our increasingly younger machinists the knowledge that "tools break - even when they shouldn't - and WILL break in your face and hands when you are using them, when you least expect them to break.

A side advantage is that you get to make some business connections with shops in your area that may be mutually beneficial.
