electric 4.5" angle grinder?

Knuckles, my Hitachi was a serviceable machine, with replaceable brushes, etc. The thing was so smooth, the disc would spin for about ten seconds after you shut it off. Some cheap tools are okay, but not cheap grinders. It sucks to grind welds all day with a machine that sounds and feels like it has gears of broken glass and rusty bearings. It takes longer as well.

We have two Milwaulkees at the shop, and they both suck. They get hot really quick, and bog down if you look at them the wrong way. The other homeowner/no-brand ones I've used were even worse. The bearings are crap and their amps are in the Dremel category.

And I am not against Skil. I actually prefer their drills, except when I using a cordless or pneumatic drill. Everyone want's the most powerful drill in the world, but all that does is break your drill bits.
