bit late to this party but did you get a grinder JB?

i have five metabo's here, 4 125's and one 9", im getting lazy so i want one for every kind of disc i use.
personally i wouldnt buy a 115 at all, too little a disc whereas the 125mm isnt much bigger but lasts a lot longer and the grinder isnt any bigger.
to answer your question about the guard, i know on the wepba's at least has a quick change lever for the guard, just pull out the little lever and rotate it to where ever you need it to be, its very handy for those awkward spots.

the second last grinder i got was a wepba14-125 quick, now its not a cheap grinder but you wouldnt regret splashing out on it, indeed i bought one this week and i went for the same model again, if you look it up you will see the spec but off hand its got a brake, paddle switch, clutch, quick release for the disc, high wattage and what i find an excellent job it has a built in balancer on it, youl never know its there but it makes a disc go a lot further compared to one without.

this video will explain the auto balancer a bit better, its a metabo video but its hard to argue with it.


Nothing done yet, been up the walls with work, the 115 is handy as I can pick up discs at lunchtime in the co op.

Might give a metabo a spin
