Having knocked down a very old cedar garden shed, I want to cut up all the
wood. I'm wondering if i buy one of the diamond discs available for it,
whether that would be reasonably ok for cutting wood with? *I cannot find
any discs that are said to be specifially for wood for this type of angle

No. *A grinder will more likely start the wood on fire than cut it. *There is
good reason you don't find wood "blades" for an angle grinder. *It's
absolutely the wrong tool for the job.

Part of the woodcarver's standard arsenal, used in conjunction
with a chainsaw. Regular coarse alox grinding wheels won't
start a fire.
