I need to pick-up an angle grinder. I am on a budget, but if I'm going to get something, I want something that will last a while (sharpening mower blades!) I probably can't get brushless right now. Should I head out to Harbor Freight or drive right past it and go to Lowe's? What exactly should I be looking for?
BTW - I am left-handed. Are there models that the handle on the side can be adjusted?
Thank you.
I'm looking at some angle grinders to remove some material off of 1/8" aluminum angle irons, and I was surprised to see the Drill Master angle grinder for $10, and the Chicago Electric for $17. It's not a particularly challenging task, and I don't see myself needing to use it very often so the price is good. However, I've had mixed luck with HF power tools, with the drill being super cheaply constructed but at least works as a drill, while their rotary tool could be stopped with my fingers. I'm curious what everyone's experiences with the angle grinders have been. Do you think these angle grinders are up to the task, and is the Chicago Electric worth the upgrade to the Drill Master? Thanks in advance!
