I've been grinding welds with the aluminum oxide wheels I get in a bulk pack from HF and always dread doing it. It's slow and it's a drudgery. A buddy showed me one of these wheels and it is amazing by comparison. Knocks the welds down extremely fast and runs cool - no discoloration in the metal. Is anyone else using these?

Thanks for the tip! I stopped buying any sanding/grinding supplies from HF a long time ago because the quality is (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif), but didn't know about those Pferd wheels. I've used mostly DeWalt because they are available locally. They aren't anything special but way better than the HF wheels at least.

+1 on 3M Cubitron. Money well spent except for their 36g 3/8" sanding belts. I may have gotten a bad batch but totally worthless whereas the 80g belts are magic.
