grinder

Can anyone give any hints or tips on using an angle grinder for cutting tiles, bought a variable Bosch and premtool blade. Have read about rotating the grinder and having the blade on the right as pull cutting can be more accurate on longer cuts. Also the dust etc is thrown away from you...

looking recommendations on a 115 or 120mm mesh/netted blade. Cheers

Just a quick review on the 115mm grinder and 125mm variable speed polisher now that I’ve had a couple of days use on 12mm marble. Both are 110v and brand new, bought from local Hilti shop. Start with the grinder, slow start, quiet and hardly any vibration at full speed in hand. You can tell it’s...

I have a few tiling jobs will be doing over next few months, just DIY but going to get a grinder and good blades. I have other Bosch tools so was going to stick with them as I like the brand but also as I have the batteries and saw the cordless grinder. The batteries I have are only 2ah one but...

What's your everyday grinder for cutting ? I have a bosch but the cord is driving me mad it's so rigid, not sure if it's getting more rigid as time goes on! I have a variable which has a lovely supple cord, so I bought the same model but none variable from PTT and that's got a normal cord on it.

I’ve just bought a cheap blade of ebay (£5) haha! It’s actually not bad! (Chips tile abit at times) But I’m wanting a decent blade, was thinking montolit cgx, anybody had experience? What the cuts like? Also need a drilling kit for my grinder? Cheers in advance!

I have a cordless Bosch grinder that I use when I can for cuts and mitred edges. It’s great and I love it. However, it is not a variable speed grinder. I would like to get a grinder to put polishing / sanding pads on to finish edges. I believe this will give a better finish and quicker than the...

Hello all When using an angle grinder with a tile cutting blade on, do you cut with the tile face up or down. Do you want to have blade cutting into face ? Sorry if this is a stupid question.
