[Roadsters] Semi-OT: Bench grinders

[Eddie]

My own personal opinion?  Don't buy cheap tools.  EVER.  Regardless of 
the "amount of use" a tool will get.  Buy good tools, and you'll never 
buy another one of that particular tool for the rest of your life...

Cheap tools that have things like hydraulics or spinning parts can be 
very dangerous.  If that thing blows apart while you're near it.... 
well, I'm sure you can guess...

Or I'd get a grinder and a cheap Harbor Freight buffer, because, again, it doesn't need to last because you won't be using it that much anyway.
