[TheForge] 1/2" electric hand drill

[Rick]

Most folks who uses different brands of grinders will tell you that 
Milwaukee grinders get too darned hot!  I have used many different brands 
and the Milwaukees always get hot.  They make excellent tools, all except 
for their grinders.  I have an old Black & Decker 4" (4-1/2" not sure) hand 
held grinder and it is about 20-25 years old now and working great.
