I looked to see what diamond edged mini cut-off wheels they had but those at
30GBP odd are probably pucker diamond dust, something else I could do with
sometimes.
somewhat related interesting discussion I recently started on uk.d-i-y on
sanding discs that I'd not seen available in DIY barns or more specialised
toolshops .


VERY little. You are supposed to let the speed do the work, not
pressure. If you try to flex the shank at those speeds, it will destroy
them.
