I am "not allowed" (happy to comply lol) to use hungry wheels or 9" ginders. We have a really great supportive team at work and I am usually able to get someone to help me with anything I feel uncomfortable with doing.

Basically a skill saw blade in a grinder.....there is varying types from thin to thick and in different profiles for gouging preps or cutting etc.
It is one of the most efficient way to manually cut/remove/prep ally and really clean as you are not embedding the cut with abrasives and glues and fibers and melted oxides.
However being hand held and "hungry" they really need to be used with a iron will...ie this will break both my arms before I let go of it.
Every single grinder accident I have seen myself or heard after the fact is complacency.
Hang onto the fuckr.
I agree (no offense m8) you possibly shouldn't be on the end of a 9 simply because it takes a bit of bulk to stall one in front of your face.

There's one on the battery grinder which is a good option for thinning tacks etc but cutting work is a leaded 1400watt plus.
