i bought one of these recently...im a big metabo fan...but this little grinder really has me impressed...and their tooless gear works much nicer than the Metabo one. Nice review sir.

@TheMelvice 11 месяцев назад

I had a lot of old pipes and rebar to cut up and from what I read ru-vid.comUgkxPDBfLu68o58Aw85O_J-zIFfjJARBhp-3 this would be the tool for the job. Since I had never used one, I watched a couple of youtube videos and I'm so glad I did. Some really good safety tips, which I followed, and this tool did a splendid job. One good thing to know is the weight of the tool puts just about the right amount of pressure on the metal I was cutting, so I didn't have to use a lot of pressure, which is more likely to jam the tool. It made fast work of my job.

Awsome job on your video demo. Very detailed. Going to get this grinder soon. Thank you.

@homerepairtutortoolsgear1607 5 лет назад

Thanks Lloyd, hopefully you like it. It’s a great grinder and the warranty is reassuring

@dillwiggle2 6 лет назад

Do you find with the paddle switch you have to press it ALL the way in for it to work ? I have one and when you press the switch and then you here the switch click, you have yo continue pressing it even further before it powers on. The older toggle switch seems to work better to me.

@blad170 6 лет назад

Love this grinder!

@bniel798 7 лет назад

I know you posted this awhile back, but just wanted to say thanks for sharing! Didn't know you could use a diamond blade on a grinder. I was tackling a kitchen with floor vents, after my prelay tiles shifted about 1/4 of inch or so, and this method helped out a lot. Looking forward to trying this with a toilet flange. Thanks again

@homerepairtutortoolsgear1607 7 лет назад

thanks for letting me know, glad the video helped. It's amazing what an angle grinder can do with the right blades. We've been very impressed with this version from Milwaukee. Hope your next project with the toilet flange is easier with the tips

@bniel798 7 лет назад

i'll have one coming up in the next month and i am going to try it! actually showed this video to the guy's who taught me how to tile, and they though this was a great idea! thanks again Jeff

@piee683 7 лет назад

Another great review what would be your favourite between this and the flexvolt,also what are the brand of gloves you have on you

@homerepairtutortoolsgear1607 7 лет назад

those gloves are Ironclad's Motor Impact series, pretty great at protecting hands. Tough call on the M18 vs FlexVolt. Both have lots of power to cut, grind, or sand. I'd need to get more experience with them. Milwaukee does give you a hard case, something I really like because it protects the tool. FlexVolt allows the motor housing to be turned 90 degrees and improve ergonomics...both are great tools...it's like Sophie's choice

My favorite tool is the 38 snubby impact 3 /8 drive/210 ft pound Torque No problem removing lug nuts. just over all everywhere use. very good video, I'll be glad when they make their own Blades to, They just opened a new plant for that, in the USA. I love my Milwaukee.🧰⚡😊👍🇺🇲

@kobelcofan 7 лет назад

My corded grinder is on the entry level of grinders, but it has a handle that can rotate with a trigger which I didn't think would be that nice, but I like it quite a bit. That feature on this grinder would be really cool.

@homerepairtutortoolsgear1607 7 лет назад

Home Repair Tutor Tools & Gear unfortunately not yet It would be great if it was able to tho!

@AndrewBrowner 7 лет назад

as long as the bolts connecting the gear case to the grinders body are in a symetrical (square) fashion and not offset (rectangular) than you can title the head, doesnt affect grinder operation or strength any the ring and pinion dont know/care what orientation theyre in, however im not sure if the put the bolts in a pattern that can be shifted 90 degrees

@craigwilson391 Год назад

I'm a mobile engineer and have this grinder it will never replace my corded grinder but I still use it daily

@DaveFrankovic 7 лет назад

Do you feel the paddle switch is comfortable? I just feel like a regular on switch would be simpler.

@homerepairtutortoolsgear1607 7 лет назад

+Dave Frankovic yah, I'll have to do more testing to truly see. A paddle switch might be better for longer periods of use. I'd love to hear from someone who's tried both configurations and get their assessment

@ElevatedMochi 5 лет назад

Nothing is more comfortable than knowing that you’ve got the safest switch in production

@shekkybowen2878 7 лет назад

great vid im a milwaukee guy and i use my tools daily i have the brushed grinder and it does prettygood but the brushless grinders probley kicks ass because brushless is better than brushed

@homerepairtutortoolsgear1607 7 лет назад

+Shekky Bowen if it works that's what matters...use that grinder till it dies 👍

@chrisjones6165 7 лет назад

Shekky Bowen the brushed is a toy compared to the fuel. the fuel is almost corded performance. add a 9.0 battery and ur good to go. check my channel to see all my Milwaukee tools

@AndrewBrowner 7 лет назад

you should do a test comparing brushed ,milwuakee tools to brushless and possibly a quick video showing how the grinder performs on a 3or4 amp hour versus the 9.0 i just picked up the brushed version for 99$ (fuel was 239$) and already had some XC3.0 batteries. the grinder does good when the batteries are full but when they get to 1/2 bars left the grinder really lacks power and trips off alot id like to get a 9.0 and try it out however i noticed the grinder gets really hot and ive managed to overheat it without using up the 3.0xc battery so that worries me was only about 10 celcius out when that happened whats yourfeedback/opinion on all this?

@crunch9876 6 лет назад

Shekky Bowen brushless isn’t really that much better and not a reason by itself to upgrade....battery last a little longer and that’s about it maybe the tool itself will also last longer....

@TimKollat 7 лет назад

Milwaukees cordless tools are top of the heap in my opinion. I just with the grinder didn't have the paddle switch. They should have just gone with a thumb switch like the Makita, Metabo..etc

@homerepairtutortoolsgear1607 7 лет назад

+mojo jojo I think they have that one, will have to check. This grinder doesn't lack power. We've been very pleased with the performance

@crunch9876 6 лет назад

These are targeted to professionals. And on most big construction sites the thumb switch is not allowed... part of the reason being osha not approving and the other part is just insurance and workers como reasons

@jasonpressler7111 5 лет назад

The Cut has nothing to do with the tool, what is important is how hot does it get during use? As well show how long the battery last's before having to switch to a new one. This wasn't a review of any kind, i can buy a 40$ grinder and perform the same task without any issues... what matters is if it will do it all day everyday, this video is more about wanting free tools for saying good things, rather than actually putting it to the metal and seeing how hot she trots.

@peterbalac1915 3 года назад

I was using my Milwaukee grinder to wire brush my trailer axles, it burned out I had to revert to my corded Bosh grinder. To be fair they are handy for light work but I probably wont bother replacing it as I'm retired now and I'm always close to a power supply.

@hosbearanda889 6 лет назад

So glad he says “5.zero” and not “5.Oh”

@Will-bp2yc 6 лет назад

It's OK, way overpriced, paddle switch annoying, and the brake is a useless feature! Nice grinder for half the price! 8000 rpm is perfect for wire wheels, flap disc, and light work! Too slow for heavy work, buy a nine inch Makita for the same price.
