And when you buy a second grinder from harbor freight (since it will probably break about half way through the job) you are STILL $48 plus shipping ahead of the game!

Oh no, kind sir, for you have mistaken. I heard lore of one of my die grinders, the cheapest of die grinders, that slaves away each day in a firey hell known only as "machine shop" and has done so for nearly 7 years. Its handler spoke of oiling it once, and only once... seven years ago, after its maiden voyage, and has yet to give it any deserving attention except for a cleaning or two. You certainly must be mistaken my tools for those inferior products found at that roaming gypsy tool tent that plagues fea markets and the such.
