On sat. and sun. they are having a sidewalk sale. The angle grinders will only be $8.99 each. Trust me though, they DO NOT last long. I got one awhile ago and it was fried in no time. I guess if you won't be using it that much $8.99 isn't bad.

Did you check the little motor brush thingy majiggies? I noticed mine wore out quickly but they included two extra in the box. They almost look like little magnets with springs on them. Anyway, the grinder will stop working when they where down or melt. Just pop 'em out, pop in the new ones and you're good to go again.

It def. wasn't them. I shouldn't have said fried cause it makes it sound like it could be them. The gears inside took a ---- and it wouldn't even spin anymore. I could still turn it on and everything
