My brothers friend recently puchased a cutting disk in Aldi in the republic of Ireland recently and they are absolute pure rubbish and dangerous to use. When he was using the disk, a piece broke off and lodged in his leg and had to go to hospital to get it out. This fella decided to go to puchase a cheap disk but paid the price. Some people learn the hard way.

 

Good tip mate

 

my halfords one shatterd and i have a scar on right arm

 

Klinspor are one of the best discs you can buy, only ones I've ever used, both in work and my garage. Never had one explode, highly recommended. (And no, I dont work for them, haha)

 

Buy lol I bet you dont buy them for home when yo use them at work. The perks eh? I miss actually working for someone else now I have to buy everything I use.

 

had discs fail on me many time never got cut bad, tho my friend did when a 9" one broke cut into his right arm iirc

 

i never said "I" buy them, but i do use them,

 

Sorry, but if you're simple enough to buy, let alone use any tools or anything of the like, from sed place, you shouldn't be anywhere near a power tool.

 

agreed.

 

i tend to use makita ones as they are well priced from good suppliers and hold together very well, that said machinemart ones are ok, but the plasma ones tend to break up with the tiniest of snagging edges.
