I bought a very cheap 115mm 900W angle grinder to cut up a rusty old
2000L oil tank (because of later building and a power-pole it couldn't be removed intact). The grinder worked well for a while, and I was careful not to force it and to run it only for short periods and let it cool right down. But before the end of the job it has burnt-out. No complains at all about the tool supplier, they refunded the cost immediately without quibble.But now I need a new grinder. Is it worth buying another sub-20 GPB grinder or should I get a 60-70 GPB industrial unit? If so which model? I still have lots of 115mm/22mm Norton cutting disks left that I'd like to use up.
I've never had much use for a grinder before, but then I haven't really considered what I might use one for - I guess I could use it for buffing waxed wood.
