900w Angle-grinders, £10 at Netto
Netto have a decent 900w 115mm angry-grinder on offer at the mo' for £15, but there's an extra third off until Sunday making 'em only a tenner.
IMHO you can't have too many, stick a grinding disk on one, a cutting disk on another etc. you don't need to keep changing types of disk then  NTDWM

I might go and buy a dozen of those, I kill a grinder every three weeks!
Even the really expensive ones only last about six weeks, Is it me? Cheers Chris

Weak Anglr Grinders.
Morning Chris.
We have always used 115mm Bosch with soft start 24/7 = 4 shifts and they last about 4 years. buy cheap ones with 3 year gnt and keep taking them back, as Tony suggests £15. - 33% made for a yorkie. Cheers Mike.

i got a makita grinder about two years ago after being very impressed with one i borrowed when the dewalt died. cant kill it for want of trying
so far i have had a bosch, dewalt, hitachi and none of them stood up to my abuse P.S. i think it only cost about £40 which is well worth it for the abuse its taken. i recall a very damp winter day chopping out concrete/steel fence footings. Last edited by AshG : 3rd October 2008 at 10:35 PM.

Hi Chris
As you’re a man with plenty in your pockets I would suggest that you invest in a flex angle grinder/ polisher. Theses are by far the best. 1200watt with 6 speeds IV had mine for the last 10 years. Used it for cutting hundreds of meters of marble tiles, grant slabs, cutting channels into walls, polishing my van and cars, cutting all the joints on my chassis. There is only one set back with them they cost around £300.

I don't know why you think this struggling author is "a man with plenty in your pockets"!
My bank account's as red as a postbox with a period...... If I had loads of money I'd get someone else to use the grinder and I'd buy an Aston Cheers Chris
