Fastenal sells a really expensive grinder It is self cleaning or sealed, maybe german made, but you could probably buy 10 hf tools in it's place. If you will be sanding fiberglass i would just get the hf tool because the fg is really abrasive to the inside of the tool. I like makita 4 inch grinders they fit ny hand pretty good but they are more expensive than the bulkier hf tool. I have both and will use the mikita more often than the hf tool.

I have that HF right angle grinder...or sumthin' similar to it. They started out at bout 30 bucks 10ish years back....then $15 bout 5 years back when the old one puked. I work them pretty hard for a few weeks a year, it seems. Keep them oiled and and they're not that bad. Good ones are pricy so I finger I'm ahead of the game.

I have the little right angle grinder. The thing is really handy. Again, if you work on cars for a living, maybe buy something better, if you need it once in a while....

I need to go this week to, so thats why i posted it. I wet sanded my old paint (PO) and need to buff it out now. L80E is not as off white as I thought ! The windsor white from duplicolor is a perfect match though!

Keep em coming. I can always use an excuse to got to HF and buy a tool I never thought I'd own (or need). BTW, I bought one of their right angle grinders about 5 years ago to do some body work, figuring for $19.95 it'd be toast by the time I was done. It's going strong today with no signs of quitting.

There is one in Ewing, NJ unless they shut it down in the last month or two. 10 minutes or so from Trenton.

Hey SirAndy,
I amy be easy to amuse, but the technology used to make the borchure work is quite cool...the window was the wrong size, but I really like what they did...in concept.
What is it they are doing/using?

Finally went over to the store in Saddle Brook. Man what a selection. Picked up a 500 watt lamp for $30 to use for curing paint on some winter resto parts. Might grab one more and put your coupons to use
Unfortunetly no more 1200 watt infrared light available there.
