What do you all recommend? Main uses will be knocking off rust to get to metal, cutting metal, smoothing welds. Small enough to fit in tight spots. Electric power source. Thanks,

You can't beat the harbor freight 4.5" angle grinder. So cheap you could consider it to be a disposable tool! I had a Shop tool brand one that got away from me and hit the floor. It broke in half. The chicago brand ones are pretty tough. I use them for wire wheel, grinding and I use the .040" cutoff disks.
