  • Dredging my previous grinder chat.

    Saw this budget Makita (M9502R/2) 570W grinder for ~£30 which is cheap enough to justify at the moment.

    It's only 570w.

    Do I need moar power?

    I assume worrying about this is misplaced and down to watching Tool Time as a kid, but just wanted the warm reassurance of lfgss.com.

    Also what blade(s) should I buy as a general multipurpose cutting disc? Going to get a could of flap discs, anything else while I'm ordering it? Use is non-specific general grinding and cutting stuff.

    Cheers.

  • it'll be fine. i picked up a makita grinder for 50 a couple of months back. b+Q i think.

    i don't rate the normal grinding discs you get. they're too clumsy for actual grinding and too thick for cutting. i'd get a proper thin cutting wheel (or a pack) and flap discs.
