230 grinders are widow makers ... throw them in a skip... banned in polite company... only suitable for naki pipeline crew

From the couch, hubby says: stop fucking around and get the biggest concrete saw you can lift with cut-off blade.

I had a look at the sabre saws, and they look the bussiness, but angle grinders are way cheaper.

gee wizzz
What the heck is wrong with a bloody hacksaw ? Seriously??
Put a GRINDING blade in the grinder if you must to tidy up the corners of the cuts. The time youve wasted rserching what kinda grinder to buy you could have the job done with the ol hacksaw
To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

So, where's the thread on "What colour hacksaw blades should I buy?".
Bucket Racer/Crasher
I've just mowed the subframe on my bucket with a B&D 110 that I've had for 20? years. I've got 1mm cutoff wheels and can vouch for them. I've also got a sabre saw and they do have their place but even the quality blades don't last when going through welds. Maybe you need to trim bits off till you can complete the cut. Be careful if cutting right through a frame member as they can jump when freed and bind on the blade. Do NOT buy the cheap 1mm wheels, get norton or some other name brand. The old 9" grinder can be great but generally they are more trouble than they are worth but geez you can get through some steel with a 1mm cutoff wheel in one of them. Be super careful with the biggies. I nicked a finger with one and it took out a very clean sharp edged 3mm deep slice. No doubt at all that the finger could have been removed in a blink.

I found a 2nd hand tool shop and got a repo saw - just need the blades now.

haha i used to work for a certain Large (MEGA?) store and you wouldnt believe how many of those peice of shit angle grinders and drills and saws... we sold and how many came back from tradesmen who cum bak and say it shat itself gimme a nu 1! Furk off. always buy the good stuff coz the amount of tradesmen who say theyve had a mikita (Pro bosch, dewalt, hitachi, metabo) tool for more than 20 years was quite amazing. the second they move production to china the quality falls away instantly. maybe 1 day china will get there?
Kiwi gone Walkabout
Reciprocating Saw actually.
I know a few folk who have got good life out of the cheap brands,i once grabbed a cheap ($39.95) drill which refused to die even using hole saws,luck of the draw perhaps.
Brands like Bosch have changed though,they used to be indestructible but now the armatures seem soft and give no where the life.
To date i had a great run out of Flex 5 in grinders,still made in Germany i think.
It is not limited to power tools,most products these days are cheap and nasty compared to yesteryear.
