    I only need one glance at your grinder to know if you're a real man.
    Hint: if it has a guard on it, I know you're not.

    Turns out if you have more grip strength than the average 9-year-old, you can hold on to an angle grinder and control it with ease. I understand why you think a guard is necessary however.

    Dismissed.

    I already posted in t'other thread.
    No guards, no problems, but my grinder is just a wee 4-1/2 inches.
    I don't care if you think it's dangerous. If safety was my number one priority, I'd never pick up a tool to begin with.

    Grinders have "shields" now?
    How the fuck do you run a carding wheel with a shield?
    >>
    >>3007649
    You should only be running an angle grinder against one direction of whichever wheel you're using, so what exactly is the problem? They've had guards for decades.

    if you'd ever worked a day in your life you'd know the guard almost always gets in the way.

    i only need one look at your grinder to know if you are a man and a precision and quality worker.
    hint, if your grinder has no guard your are not, but you probably think you are.
    everyone i see who death-wheel, and there are occations where i have to do it myself in thight places. but to death wheel every time you use it means you will be looking like a retard holding it by the body, being inefficent and making unprecise cuts
    >one hand on the gear head, thumb on the cover
    thats how you make precise grinder cuts.
    >>
    >>3007812
    >everyone...
    missed the last words there
    ...double handed death grip it and make the whole job worse than it could have been.

    a perfect garage have a multitude of covered grinders and one dedicated death wheel. we had that in my garage, a buttold 80s grinder, supersmall body and ran on 220v, it could cut anything within an engine bay or suspension setup but it was seen as like an electric oxy/ace torch, when you choose that tool for the job you where pissed. for everything else always the guard on.
    >>
    >>3007777
    WTF was that video all about? Cliffs on why?

    >>one hand on the gear head, thumb on the cover
    >thats how you make precise grinder cuts.
    Limp wrists typed this post.

    Can you seriously not one hand a grinder and make a super precise cut up to a scribe line? Try laying out your parts with proper scribe marks before hacking away at them with a dull beaver.
    >>
    If you have to use a grinder for anything other than a flap wheel or wire wheel you've fucked up in life

    the only people who make up gay names for a power tool are morons who don't know how to use it properly

    I once had a job as a dumb kid where we had to cut shitloads of stacks that were man-high sheets or rebar mesh. We were at it for weeks, blew up literally hundreds of cutoff discs, not a single one threw a fragment large enough to do more than a little superficial wound.

    If you are rocking the big boy grinder with massive discs then I get it, I would be wearing all the gear and have the guard on, but these little battery grinders, you can run perfectly fine with no guard and a pair of safety glasses.

    Guardfags, stay safe. Make sure you're using a "guard" on your other Grindr too.

    I think you'd need a bit more height to reach neck cutting velocity. Any reports of anyone ever doing this though? It's be pretty metal.

    I use the metal ones on harbor freight grinders that have long since died or the brushes wore out and cheaper to buy one for $7.97 and get a free bucket with purchase and a fiber disc included in the box…..

    Then shave them down so that the fiber disc fets full contact but still protects your hand and shit

    You're the guy I got the idea from. I just went ahead and made an adjustable table for my chain vise so I can move it up or down depending on what I'm doing... Use this setup to make rubber hole plugs or custom grommets for things.

    At my old shop any form of PPE was grounds for relentless jeering and verbal harassment. gloves, glasses, guards, whatever. it all came off or you were ruthlessly made fun of nonstop, and even for a few days after you wised up and stopped being a pussy. We only had room for real men on our crew, and we had all earned the scars to prove it.
