Strange !!!
The whole reason it is called a die grinder is that it is used to grind and shape tool steel in the hands of a tool and die maker as he makes a die for punch press work.

Unless you=92re going to be working with VERY soft materials do not buy a pneumatic die grinder.
Using a carbide burr in a die grinder you can work with very hard materials
No matter what the outcome, I consider a day that I learn SOMETHING to be a good day. And some days I learn NOT to do something.

Or maybe, don't buy the cheapest one around? What ARE you talking about?
