Do you use the HF abrasive wheels? If so, how well do they perform?


Yes I do. The 4" and 4 1/2" grinder wheels work very well. The 3" cutoff
wheels work very well also. The 4" and 4 1/2" cutoff wheels wear very
quickly, but they do cut well - you will just go through them faster than
you will the 3" wheels. If I had to work without them, and simply resort to
my 3" cutoff tool, it would not kill me.


I've been using DeWalt brand but I do quite a bit of metal work and
could use a brand that treats my budget a little more kindly.
I'll pick up an assortment of HF wheels soon.
Thanks.
