Tristan 338 Report post Posted March 8, 2013 Could be worth looking at borrowing (hiring) a decent one from HireQuip or somewhere like that. In my experience, a poor quality product can lead to a less-than-appealing finished product. Food for thought. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3570 Report post Posted March 8, 2013 At hard ware stores there's a brand called predator I think. Super cheap. Does the job. I might have a makita or Milwaukee one lying around. Will have a look and post up if i find it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deeveus 81 Report post Posted March 15, 2013 I bought a Results one a few years back now, never a problem with it, paid $20 bucks, I've also got a DeWalt and hardly notice the difference for what I use them for. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nobimmer 694 Report post Posted March 15, 2013 ^lol +1 It's a 10 dollar grinder. Use it until it brakes and take it back and get another one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
polley 916 Report post Posted March 15, 2013 Had a cheap one $20 one from the warehouse, couldnt kill it too easily.... survived the swimming pool test. Burnt it out a few days later, took it back and got a replacement one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
euroriffic 609 Report post Posted March 15, 2013 I got a firebrand one from the warehouse about 7-8 years ago for $50 with about 40 discs and have given that a hiding over the years and still works fine! Only thing I had to do on it was replace the lead on it last week as I kept shocking myself on it where I had cut through the phase wire haha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
