The dewalt cordless lithium I have is pretty strong and gets a good few cuts with a 4.0ah battery
I use it all the time when buying steel to cut them in half to transport on pickup.
Angle grinder technique is indeed something to always be mindful off esp with cutting
I always try to cut standing over to direct the fragments between my legs and behind me.
I prefer to use the very thin cutting discs as they cut faster at the expense of shorter life.
I had a 7" grinder and sold it because i was afraid of power and danger.

I meant to say thanks for posting this earlier. I had been planning on buying one and your post came up just in time.M_2NR wrote:Tool Store (L&G) in POS has the Toro blowers (originally $300) on a sorta sale for $150. Limited stock. They are not in box because the box was damaged. The blowers working great still though. At $150 that is more than a steal.

i rather buy something at a reasonable justified cost than macgyver up something that may work so-so some of d times or u gotta keep fiddling with it to get it to work right ... thats just me
like across all fields there are always that handful of quality priced products 5 times or more above d next below level of brands that most of us wouldnt ever own , so we comfort ourselves saying it over priced , used to say that in earlies when i had black & decker or skil then made d leap to stuff from makita\dewalt\bosch\milwaukee etc , when u use d much better built good stuff is like kicking urself , shuda done it yrsss ago & u never going back
anyway will continue working with my good brands for now & 1 day will try d elite stuff ...
