Grinding discs @ B&Q

Just seen these whilst looking for a grinding wheel for my drill.

Seem to be drawing a blank so far on what I wanted though. Are they banned these days ? the one I'm replacing is probably about 30 years old !

Grinding wheel for a drill! My old Dad and some of those, mounted on a 7/16" UNF Bolt!!

Drills are not really fast enough for grinding. Perhaps you could get a Dremel type device, although I've never personally found a use for one. Thumbs Up Richard

big fan of the Dremel chainsaw sharpening bits … never done the chainsaw but they are great for grinding awkward shapes. But in this instance, I want a flat surface when i'm done. (may resort to the angle grinder but it's a bit aggressive and I can't fasten it down and use two hands holding the thing i'm grinding )

you'd be surprised how good the drill driven wheels are … and the slower speed makes it easy to keep the temperature down. My dad even used to have a Black and Decker frame (for want of a better description) that his drill clipped in to for grinding etc. I seem to recall cutting it in two when B&D changed the size of their drills, so he could carry on using it.

Literally just got back from screwfix where I bought 5 packs of 5 Bosch ones for £4 odd.😩

I might take them back and get these!

update :

bad news is … they're CUTTING discs, not grinding.

good news is … took youngest along and he gets staff discount on these things.

if anyone is after them, they are kept in the TRADE section … but you get same price at the ordinary tills.
