You know what tool now deserves some mocking? my corded chicago electric 4.5 inch Angie grinder.
The stupid thing set me back about 18$ in 2005 and has been beat to snot, caked in cut off wheel dust and 'other'
Had to fix power cord once, and now brushes have to be near toast, and one.of 4 gearbox screws loosened and lost itself.
I.didnt use it at reduced speeds on a router speed controller, for hours.on end, foiling wood.surfboard fins, or.honing the sliprings on my chrysler alternator, or wirewheeling roof gutter rust.
The switch is not a bitloose and imprecise
It otherwise does not still work perfectly and spun a 40 grit flap sander just today.
Yesterday , the Ridgid 18v 4.5 angle grinder was 139$, tool only. Nope.
Today, it comes with 2, 4.0 ah batteries, and charger, for 179$.
Arrives by friday......
Woulda preferred the blower and batteries/charger for same price, but snost and lost.
