You don't want to "overbuy" on a grinder for home use.
Because it just doesn't get used much.

The other day, I had to make a 4" wide scraper to weld on to an SDS bit for
floor scraping of old grout. It was 3/8" x 2" flat bar. I adjusted the
rest, and went to grinding an edge. Put it right in the wheel and came up
with a nice looking hollow ground effect.

I COULD NOT CHOKE DOWN THE GRINDER. It is a two wheel Skil, an old one.
First grinder I have used in a very long time that I could not make stop by
pushing metal in there.

I say don't underbuy and have some wimpy POS that won't do that occasional
job where nothing else will work. Plus burning it up from overloading.
