The WEN has been added to our running list of tools that don’t suck: https://www.amazon.com/shop/torquetestchannel While the Milwaukee…. has not. Being upstaged by the cheapest tool on Amazon is not a good look, perhaps Milwaukee has moved on from continually improving all tools like they do with cordless, and consider these “legacy” tools that they will keep making as long as people buy them. Hopefully we can continue to provide enough objective data to send those types of tools off into retirement a bit quicker and help the cream to rise to the top.
I’m going to buy the warrior 4.3 amp grinder and use it as the power source for my drill bit sharpening station. The goal is to build it for under 30 bucks.
Long live the blue drillmaster
Yes vibration is 100 important
I went with a Bauer $30 grinder. Almost with the Warrior, but the higher amperage at 7 vs 4.3 is what did it for me. I also have a Bauer Multitool so it works out well. I won’t use them very frequently anyways.
