The HF grinder I had was pretty good for a cheap grinder. I used and abused that thing quite a bit. So, I did get my money out of it in work. I bought a DeWalt to replace it. The hardware store that had it is much closer and the price wasn't that far off from the nice HF grinder I was looking at as a replacement. DeWalt isn't what they used to be but they do take use and abuse better.I also had a 25% off coupon for HF.
I also got a new spare tire yesterday from discount tire (where I work while getting my auto tech degree) and while putting it back up when I got home I noticed the dreaded spring hanger rot.
So I used the coupon to buy a new nicer angle grinder.
I had the infamous $10 one, it broke a few months ago and I haven’t had a reason to buy a new one until now.
But…. Like I said in the “what did you do today?” thread, I had my wisdom teeth removed today and am now banned by my oral surgeon from lifting anything for a week. So I have a ‘broken’ truck and can’t fix it.
Did I mention my oral surgeon’s name is Dr. Pirelli?
