What's your daily grinder

[Flintstone]

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.

Change it.

The variable one from Bosch is my daily go to.. good feel to it I find

Corded Makita is mine but I'm going cordless soon

I tend to leave my electroplated grinding disc on my Bosch cordless.. would like to get a brushless cordless for cutting

I did think about changing the flex cable, not sure how straight forward that is. Might end up buying another variable Bosch instead. What's your cutting grinder @3_fall you must have similar issues with the cable !

I keep my grinders warm in bed with me at night Andy. Don’t get cold power leads then.
But if I was to find it an issue, I’d use my cordless metabo, which is brushless

It’s actually very easy Andy, two screws hold back cover on, and you have direct access to the power connection.

Day to day I use a cordless bl makita. I've a variable speed bosch which has a curved wheel on and my oldest grinder which gets used on thick stone, grinding down floors and general abuse is a green bosch! A £40 throwaway from b&q about 8 years ago!

90% of the time it’s the cordless Bosch.

5AH Cordless Makita, infact you've just reminded me I've left it out under workbench..bugger!!!

Hilti corded for heavy work but more and more recently I’m preferring the versatility of my cordless Metabo which I’ve had for years. I have to say I don’t miss the restriction of the bloody cords and it’s surprising how well it performs against a corded grinder and it’s slim design is another big plus.
