Diamond Cutting Discs

I found a perfectly servicable 115mm diamond cutting disk in my local Poundwise for, as the shop name suggests, £1. At that price, I'm not terribly worried whether it is the best make. I didn't take note of whether they had any larger ones though.

Got mine in Aldi for less than a fiver at the same time I bought their

Toolstation do one for =A312.

Lidl have a set of 4 4" ones for 4 quid next week - the 19th.

IME the expesive ones from B&Q are the crappest ones available, seriously - they don't last as long as a £10 cheapo from a handymans shop.

Faithfull aren't at all bad, Rolson, which are even cheaper, are better still for some bizzare reason and they cost about 6 - 8 quid a go. I never buy anything else now and one rolson disk will easily cut 3 - 400

hello , maybe you can try this?

Diamond disks are very variable. The cheapies are OK for most purposes but if you are cutting granite/granit e aggregates (some paving stones), they won't look at them.

I think the cheapies have a lot less diamond dust in them. And they wear out quicker.

Check if they need water cooling. Some do, some don't.

Oh and they are VERY dusty, you must have a face mask and goggles. Hell of a mess to clear up afterwards if indoors.

Big angle grinders are beasts to handle with diamond disks, they can jam in the slot if the dust doesn't clear and have a savage kickback.

Well harry *is* several years out of date. He still thinks solar panels are 'good for society' or some such crap.

I suspect the post from saddo.be (or something like that) woke the thread in his newsreader. Yet that isn't the one he replied to.
