I am pleased that you saw fit to honor your now-dead-and-soon-to-be-forgotten angle grinder with something of a eulogy.... that's far more than I would have done for the unit I am currently abusing in every way imaginable. Say what you will about the "inferior quality" of Harbor Freight tools -...

^ I wouldn't ship to California either. Too damn many "rules". Hostile to business. There must be options somewhere, no?

no wonder we're all crazy as hell.... :rolleyes:

You guys are killin' it with the Martin stuff! (y)

well... both our friend at AA and Stan seem convinced, so I would say yes, you hit it on the head, @RTM (y)

Hello @DougTee and welcome to the site. 13.5 cm = 5.314 inches - which puts it into what we refer to as the "bicycle wrench" category. You didn't put your location into your avatar, so I don't know which side of the Atlantic are. Your use of the metric measurements makes me think you might be...

patented? or trademarked?
