Re: Air tools

I had a cheap cut off disk from harbor freight almost take my finger. I was cutting a piece of relatively thin sheet metal. A pie shape piece of the disk broke out and the disk grabbed the metal flipped the tool out of my hand and the remaining piece of the disk cut straight into my knuckle. After that anything that spins fast is a name brand. I like Norton disks but most anything name brand will be fine. I think for me the worse part is using these tools everything you get used to them and get a sense of safety with the tools and it becomes TOO routine. You forget how dangerous the tool is and almost become complacent.
