I just bought a rotary file set from PA last month that I was going to chuck into my corded drill. Maybe I'll try it on my lawn mower blade. I was going to use it for grinding down errant welds. On Sun, 12 May 2024 at 22:56, William Park <opengeometry@yahoo.ca> wrote:
Thanks. I'll visit Princess Auto near my work. I've been browsing Amazon, and it's sad. You can tell some grinding bits are off-axis even from the pictures.
- I tried angle grinder, but it takes off too much metal, too fast. - I tried rotary tool, but it took too long. - I tried manual file, and that's too much work. :-) - I found die grinder is just right.

I don't use a die grinder, but have used an angle grinder on my lawn mower blade before. You've run through all the usual (ugh) stores but one: princessauto.com <http://princessauto.com>. But most/all of their stuff is China made. I go to Princess Auto quite often for grinding, welding accessories.
You can also try busybeetools.com <http://busybeetools.com> but I've not gone there for many a year.

Hi all, Very off topic, but I'm fed up.
I sharpen my lawn mower blade with die grinder. Problem is, all the bits that I bought from Canadian Tire, Rona, and Home Depot, they all wobble. Except for one bit. And, that has been used so much that I
need
a new one, now.
If anyone has die grinder, what brand of grinding bits do you
recommend?
