We are looking at purchasing a new Angle Grinder for the space. Pledge opened: 20 December 2013

Pledge leader: penguin

The item

  • A 230 volt 110mm angle grinder and a selection of cutting wheels, and suitable gloves

Like:

  • Might be better to get one that releases the power switch on power loss
  • Damn near impossible to find a type 1 guard for the above and if you can, it costs more than the grinder

Like what?

Budget estimation

  • £100


Specification

  • To be determined

Additional information

  • The space had 2 angle grinders, one died and the other went walkabout.
  • A loaner grinder mishap, caused perhaps by an intermittent switch recently caused a multiple stitch injury.
  • BE CAREFUL WITH ALL POWER TOOLS!
  • So we need a new one. (and gloves)

Pledges

Running total: £20


Approximate target: £100
