Good for you gumme! 


I see some of those Kobalt sets in stock near me, but the price is $15.98 (20% off). I hate those cases with the acrylic lids, they'll break the first time I drop one. I also hate all the small bits. But, for $4, I'd take a set!

Not critiquing the post but I wouldn't buy the 1000 series for more than $50, and if you had a need for not terribly strong drawers.
I think they're only 14" deep too.

This is not on the website anymore, I will be stopping in store today to see if they have any, my wife's friend recently got divorced and her old man took all the tools, would be perfect for her to get a start with.
Dewalt 2 pack 4.5" angle grinders for $60 bucks if they have em in store. Unfortunately, all my local stores are sold out and the nearest one is 2 hours away!
Is there a practical reason to own more than one grinder?

Cutoff wheel, wire wheel, grinding wheel. Time to switch them out.

Mike, don't worry. Your family will be taken care of.

I have 3 grinders for this reason. I've always thought it seems like a dumb waste of money and tool space - especially if you want to use a good-quality grinder and not HF. Bosch has just introduced a new system that allows for fast attachment changes:
I've also read that they are licensing this "x-lock" system to other manufacturers, so it is likely to become the new standard (just like Bosch did with the t-shank jigsaw blade and SDS hammer interface).
Can't remember if I saw this here (I looked so I could thank the poster) or on SD, but I got this Kobalt cutoff tool for $23.59 yesterday in Alexandria, VA, last one in store:

It was in its normal place in the tools with a yellow clearance price sticker, not in the clearance area.
