Actually there are two items I'd have like to have to hand for those occasional

small say, mouse sized, angle grinder type thing (specific enough ? ) Does
such a thing even exist I wonder?


I have a nut splitter thing for removing stubborn nuts:

It works well on brass nuts that are generally used on exhaust
systems.

With steel nuts it generally distorts them enough to allow them to be
removed.
