is it really just water?

I understood, and it may be wrong, that there water is mixed with fine abrasive whcih does the cutting/grinding.

it has a mixture of garnet @80mesh fed through a metering disk, but at 87,000psi the water only will cut ali up to 4mm and woods, paper and textiles.....

and body parts too....

Perfectly correct, a fine garnet mixed with water at 65000 psi through a .75mm nozzle.

We have cut mobile phones in half

Will cut virtually anything apart from toughened glass, it just shatters.

Any metal, plastic, stone, ceramics ordinary glass etc etc

cheers

I dont really get that involved with set up stuff thats my operators job.

I just use it after hours to play with and do stuff for guys on here

I do know that we use diamond orrifaces as i bought new ones last year

We dont have the fancy dynamic heads, although we had the guys in from flow trying to sell me a new machine, and it did look impressive.

old "Tales of the unexpected" where a policeman who's having an affair is killed by his wife using a frozen leg of lamb as a club... she then puts it in the oven to roast and goes out... when she comes home and "discovers" her dead husband his colleagues end up eating the murder weapon.... keith

i dont know about sharpening it to cut your wrist, but you could certainly make a spike from ice, like an icicle, find a soft area to insert it with enough force could prove lethal

... it can cut my toes!

Remember working as a labourer during the school hols many years ago. Thought it would be an idea to clean the toe-caps of my wellies using the powerwasher I was playing with... punched a hole straight through the rubber and sliced my big toe wide open!
