Need a GOOD angle grinder

[565bbchevy]

I have had my Dewalt for 10+ years and it works great but I still get HF grinding wheels for it.

Drogg1 that review guy is awesome! Thanks for that. I went to the store today and picked up all the long tail grinders I could find. Even though the Makita is on sale, it weighed a ton, and felt very rugged. I would not want to hold that for very long, but I bet I could cut up a whole car in no time with it. The DeWalt felt the best, nice and light, very ergonomic. But while the box said "Made in USA with Global Parts", the label on the actual tool said "China". I was surprised at the Porter Cable. It felt great, and was only $40, clearly made in China. But at least they were asking China prices, unlike the DeWalt which was asking American prices for a China product. I will keep looking.

I did it. I haunted Fleabay looking for Made In USA exclusively and I got lucky. I scored two NOS Milwaukee USA made grinders. One is a 5" variable speed paddle switch 12 amp and one is a 7" long handle 15 amp. Both brand new. Rugged, heavy duty, a little expensive, but very satisfying. My Grandkids will probably inherit these. For my go-to power tools I usually lean towards Makita, but when I can find USA made Milwaukee I lose control. Thanks for all the feedback guys.

Hell yeah. That's a good find. You should get a lot of use out of those grinders.
