RE: servo uncentering by itself
 
Sure but what about the guy that grinds the entire arm of on the belt sander, now that could generate some heat!
I've never had this failure and I have trimmed a few arms in the last thirty + years but I always started with the side cutters first.

Interesting theory there. The amount of time it takes to round off the edges of the cut arm is about 2-3 seconds per side on a belt sander. I would have never thought that the heat could even build up in such a short time to the point where the spline area would deform/crystalize.

I think I've done that once or twice when my workbench was so cluttered that I couldn't find the three or four pair of side cutters that were buried under the mess:D.

I actually play a game in my garage on this issue. The garage door has styrofoam insulation panels attched to it. I take the side cutters to the horn and see if I can stick the horn in the insulation.

I get around 1 in 10 to stick.

You guys ever see how fast these things pop off with dikes?

I've never tried to polish the sharp ends left, just never seemed necessary to me.

Sean, I know what ya mean! I love to see how far those things will fly when you cut them with dykes. Who needs a gun for home defense? A pair of dykes and a servo arm will shoot 'em in the eye!

I have, however, been guilty of sanding off the corners. Need to stop that.
