Makita makes several different die grinders. I'm sure they're all pretty
good but I haven't used them all. However you need to be very careful abuot
their GDO810C. It was discontinued several years ago and can still be found
on ebay for very cheap. It was designed to spin very large bits and so
spins very slowly. This is fine if you're going to use a large bit, but is
useless if you're going to use small carbide burrs, etc.

The electric die grinder that Harbor Freight sells for $30-$40 is very good
too.

I have no complaints with the one I bought at Princess Auto for
Cdn$11.99 Of course I don't know any better.
