The Chicago Pneumatic Air Scribe is a bit noisy and also produces quite a bit of dust and grit as it disintegrates the rock matrix, making both a dust mask and ear protectors necessary when the unit is in use outside a dust-collecting chamber. A silencer powerfisttools that fits snugly around the hand-held unit is not available from the manufacturers but can easily be made with a few common household tools. By cutting a piece of metal tubing to the length of the air scribe''s handpiece and notching one end so that it can be crimped to conform to the tapered bit end of the tool, a very simple noise insulator is produced. A foam rubber plug inserted in the bit end forms a snug fit. The only disadvantage to this noise protection is that the natural stream of air emitted from the tool end is blocked, and dust is not readily blown off the working surface. Likely some innovative tinkerer will soon solve this problem. Simple ear plugs or muffs are adequate to help provide hearing protection. Another minor problem with the air scribes is the absolute necessity of lubrication. Producing an effective reciprocal motion to any tool involves very complex valves and close-fitting parts. This is especially true when the tool is designed to be very small. Depending on the duration of use, an air scribe must be oiled from once to several times per day. This involves shutting down the system, dismantling the air supply, and inserting several drops of high-quality air-tool oil. In-line oiling systems are available that can make this process far simpler. Additionally, regularly flushing the unit with oil will eliminate microscopic particles of metal and grit and will greatly extend the life of your air scribe. Sandblasting

When equipment in your operation fails for reasons that you don''t think it should have, you have an obligation to tell the manufacturer that he needs to change the design and offer more reliable products. Owners need to attend trade shows and reach out to manufacturers. They need to share their concerns about existing products and provide ideas of what they need in future equipment.Manufacturers constantly relate how little feedback they receive from end powerfisttools users and owners. The product engineers who do attend the trade shows tell how they beg for input and ideas from end users, and only rarely receive any.

TIPUse the jackhammer to crack the concrete, not to punch holes. If the chisel bores into the concrete without cracking it, stop and try another spot. Getting a stuck chisel out of solid concrete is a cursing waste of time.Rent the jackhammer''s smaller cousin, a "chipping hammer" ($30 to $40 per day), for lighter tasks: breaking up a few square feet of basement floor for plumbing work or chipping ceramic tile off a concrete floor.Brad nailerCOST: $50 per day with compressorBENEFITS: Better results with less time and effort.
