Whats wrong with this ad from Temu?

[cwsmith]

The first thing I see is that the young lady is NOT wearing safety glasses. The second is that this appears to be an Ad for a router bit, and both the models are working on a drill press. I suppose one might well use the drill press in this manner, but I wouldn't recommend it!

The fourth thing I noticed is that the young lady appears to have a long pigtail, with no hat to retain it in place. Did I ever post about the young lady machinist in our factory, who had long hair, tied in pigtail fashion. For whatever reason, she opened the safety door on her lathe and leaned forward to clear debris while the machine was running, catching her hair in the chuck. Because of other machinist playing their loud radio's, nobody heard her screems.

CW got more than I did. But the primary thing is using a drill press instead of a router BECAUSE That is a compression bit, which even more so means it is NOT. intended for a drill press!

Bearing guided bit but in the graphic there is no template or anything touching the bearing.

Tool marketing from people that have no clue what it is they are selling, how to use it properly and safely, or what it is supposed to do. Apparently they are trying to get the female model hurt there...

As most people have pointed out

• Router bit, only shown mounted in Drill press wrong tool
• Router bearing bit meant for patterns is shown cutting a piece of wood with no template pattern, a no-no
• Multiple safety practice violations - googles, eyewear, pony tail, improper tool for the job...

Apparently, in TEMU world, no matter how it's presented, people will buy it.

Well, you and I know how that bit is to be used, safely. And its cheap.
I've had some good luck with Temu parts or Banggood like hinges that look just like ones bought on amazon but half the price. Magnets and other cheap hardware, fishing tackle.
I complained about some plastic alignment squares, that one of four was molded badly and out of square, They refunded my money and told me to keep them. So i tossed one, have three OK ones.
