Got the Suhner Die Grinder today... GAWD what a friggin tool
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/711/suhner.jpg"></center><p>
This is an incredibly serious, SERIOUS die grinder! Side by side it dwarfs the Makita GD0800C and has almost the 3x the amps (torque). And its SOOOO quiet... makes less than 1/20 the noise on high speed as the Makita does on low speed! This tool will make short work of anything it touches or comes into contact with. As for porting, polishing and honing? Hell, this thing could port, polish & hone a locomotive in half! Length-wise!! Way more serious a die grinder than even I was expecting. And my expectations were lofty. But even I struggle with why or what something this heavy duty, precision and powerful could ever be used for. No wait, I know... horizontal locomotive dissection!! Of course. Yeah thats it... thats the ticket! This could turn the Intake Manifold job into a 5-minute per runner task. Maybe even less... maybe LOTS less! Al Quieda doesn't need planes. Using one of these the Golden Gate bridge becomes a man-made reef before the lunch whistel blows.
I'll get a pic up later or this evening. I'm still chuckling. This thing is so powerful it's funny. I've never seen anything like it in a die grinder... NOTHING comes close!!

Hey now...
Don't you be going around giving people ideas of how to cut down our bridge on the fly! ;-)
You might want one of <a href="http://www.directindustry.de/images_di/press/press-g/P4720.jpg"> those</a>, too. :-P

as a matter of fact I'll be installing a 20 amp circuit breaker to power...
the outlet nearest my grinding bench. There's plenty in the current 15amp breaker to power it alone but not enough residual to power on anything else while the die-grinders running.
