Yup - needed a large (9") angle grinder to cut out the hole in a brick
wall for a large new window and lintle. Checked the hire price for a
weekend plus wear costs on a diamond blade. Bought one with diamond
blade
for less. And despite it being a cheapie, it's still working fine.


Now try that with a scissor lift, bobcat, JCB, trailer, scaffolding.


Alternative is to buy and sell when finished with.


Sure, but its rather more convenient to just rent it for the day etc
particularly with big stuff that you can't actually post to the buyer.
