Default 4 or 4 1/2 in. angle grinder from Harbor Freight


"jim" wrote in message ...
harbor freight has some cheap angle grinder, one on sale for $9.99 and i
guess you have to buy the grindig wheels for it??? seems that it retails
for $19.99 and its on sale with some other junk for one day in the
store. they have another one for about $15.00 that pops up all the
time. anyone ever bought one of these and was it worth it.. i dont
expect to get a $300 unit quality, but for limited use is it worth it
and what can you do with it???? thanks for a reply......



I have two of them. Yes, they are noisy, yes they are cheap, yes they keep
running. Have had them for a couple of years now, without any problems. I
first bought one because I couldn't afford anything else for a project I had
at the time. Figured I'd buy a decent one when this HF POS quit. Well, it
hasn't quit yet. So I went ahead and bought another one because I got tired
of switching grinding disk with wire wheel all the time. My brother has same
experience. Others here have similar experiences.
