This wheel takes care of business

This monster gets the job done like it does now! I process oak for artwork. Before I knew it I was cutting holes in wood and hollowing them out. Not correct. Then I started using a 7 inch free hand circular saw which is very interesting and effective. People stay out of your way. The carpenter then recommended this tool to me. Thank you! This wheel runs as fast as a circular saw and cuts by hand more cleanly. Also, a 7-amp grinder doesn't twitch much with this wheel and threatens to slice your thigh to the bone. I was thinking about getting a grinding wheel for a chainsaw. Imagine the possibilities. Find chainsaw wheels right here on Amazon. You'll also find some pretty gruesome images of wounds inflicted by grinders with chainsaw wheels. It's like this: you have to remove the shield to use the chainsaw wheel and you get the gist of it. I didn't buy a chainsaw wheel. This wheel also needs to remove the protective shield, but it's well constructed and behaves well. By holding the grinder firmly with both hands, I feel relatively secure and get my job done quickly and fairly accurately. This tool is intended for experienced grinder users only. I work with steel and burn with mills. I've never hurt myself grinding or cutting steel, and I don't think I'll hurt myself carefully working this circle on wood. However, if you're relatively new to using an angle grinder, I suggest you think again. Guys or anyone else will not save you. If this instrument slips, blood will flow. There may be other specialty tools out there for rough woodworking, but for less than $20, you can't beat this basic sanding disc. Highly recommended. But be careful!
