Harbor Freight Drill Master 4.5 Angle Grinder
Are the <$20 Angle Grinders Worth It?
Is Drill Master going away?
Can I use a 7 in polisher/sander as an angle grinder?

I noticed the cheap $9.99 Drill Master rotary tool was recently rebranded under the Warrior name.
Also, last night, I was watching a YouTube video uploaded about a year ago, and the person had a Drill Master angle grinder. I didn’t know Drill Master sold angle grinders, and I looked on the website and it appears that the angle grinder I saw has since been rebranded as Warrior and is now currently the entry-level Warrior angle grinder.
Is Drill Master merging into Warrior, or is the brand just being repurposed? Or are only a couple products being rebranded and they just happen to be the only ones I’ve seen?
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!
