you do have to be very carefull when using angle grinders.
i was about 14 when my dad was building a kit car. he let me use the angle grinder with wire brush attachment to clean the rear axel off the sierra. dont worry e wasnt being irresponsible, had used angle grinders before then with him so was ok.
got myself kitted up with mask, goggles, gloves and HUGE overalls. am so glad i was wearing HUGE overalls as the grinder caught and flug itself at me and chewed up the overalls covering the family jewels. they were sooo bagy hey saved my boy bits
5 min later got back on with the job
