Firstly…thanks for the heads up on sand sustitute for quartz, Josh….and what a surprise !
Steve….you beauty…the Bovis readings are great confirmation.. I’m particularly surprised
at the difference in the Tb readings…combo of sand and copper top very interesting.
Perhaps the copper top more conductive than the steel ? or is it the sand more active than quartz ?
I think I’ll make some more trials with identical swarf.. the only difference being the sand and quartz.
Great info on treehugger link…I imagined going beyond benchtops…how about wall panels
incorporating metal swarf and beachsand…mmm
Lightning, trouble with benchtops is resin scratches easy and I wouldn’t want to cut food up on it,
but surely a product is available for tough finish……………great idea on collecting different sands
for specific areas…sure earth spirits would like working with local materials…ha ha
Mini Benchtop ? ha ha…………nah..,just another photo opportunity ..!
