THanks for the replies everyone! There’s a lot of Hitachi stuff on clearance and I was thinking about just grabbing a their corded 4.5″ angle grinder. For roughly the same price, I can get the Bosch one. However the Hitachi comes with a hard case and 4 blades, the Bosch is bare tool only. It’s cheap either way and I do need one so I don’t think I can really go wrong, just wanted to know what your (everyone’s) opinions are.

Buy the Bosch…

I’ve never been disappointed with any of my Bosch grinders.

I put bosch grinders in as #2 right behind metabo. You wont be disapointed with a bosch grinder. I have not used a hitachi so i cannot compare though yes a case is nice. Blades you can always trade your points for and having 4 of them that you wont use isnt enough to win me over over the trustworthiness of the bosch

Dremel has come out with a new OMT that has some very unique features. I threw it in my amazon cart. Looks interesting.

The control foot looks like a great feature for controlling the depth of a long cut. Wishing I didn’t buy the mm20 now lol

I agree, and that’s a pretty good company to be second to. Truth be told, I might even like my new Bosch variable speed grinder More than my Metabo.

Those jigsaw blades are sweet! You will appreciate the hard case also…

[yellaD]

Thanks for the input, I’ll def opt for the Bosch. Support/info is easier to get also.

That’s impressive. I use a lot of different fasteners but I never have a nice organised selection on hand like that.

Do you actually use that much of a variety of bolts on a regular basis?

No not at this time, but on future projects.

I usually go to the store and buy what I need. If I had room to store bolts with me like that it would save a lot of time!

The key here is to be organized and save time. I also hate to run out of fasteners during the weekends when the stoores are closed.

happy birthday to you, and i really like that case that the jigsaw blades come in, i just throw mine in the jigsaw box and they free float in there. I would really want a case like that to prevent dulling.

Look at what Lee Valley/Veritas just announced today! The Veritas® Precision Rotary Tool Holder

http://www.leevalley.com/EN/wood/page.aspx?p=74250

I got me one of those! Way better than a Dremel or any router.
