I have a gift certificate for $75 from sears;
I'd like a 1/4" die grinder.
I'm using it maybe to buff, but mostly with carbide burrs to drill and
gouge undercuts in stone carving.
I tried harbor freight's $15 grinders; within a few months one of them
died, and they never had enough torque, always bogging down. (clip)

Part of the problem may be the stone dust being drawn through the die
grinder.

BTW, are you wearing any kind of breathing filter?
