Accident with angle grinder ( warning )

All tools are dangerous & a lapse in judgement or not having your total attention on what you are doing can be hazardous. As far as the grinders go,nNever take the guard off, there are other tools to accomplish your task. High speed grinding disc made overseas (China) are subject to fly apart. Grinding rocks on bigger grinders with shatter if not stored and/or used correctly, if dropped they may look good until they spin up & then fly apart. My thoughts as I have gotten older is, I've lived this long without the stupid gene, why start now.
