I'm sure that $25 angle grinder works just fine...

I've had my 19.99 orange angle grinder for over 10yrs, it's not an everyday use tool, but it works. I picked up one of their 14.99 grinders and the flange that the washer behind the disc mates to was damaged, causing the disc to wobble. Used it as a wire wheel only grinder after that.

That's what, two cents per RPM? What could possibly go wrong?

¢/RPM is an incredible unit of measure. We should sort all tools like this.

For the adrenaline junkies out there.

Pick up some 50 cent safety glasses and you're golden.
