Which brands and models of 4 1/2" grinders fit the lazer-cut skate? Which do you recommend? I would like one with high amps. Thanks

Ok......i went ahead and ordered a set of two Dewalt grinders Model DW818, off Ebay, for $119.95 9 amps each. Someone on another thread said they fit his so, here's hoping. :)

While I'm waiting on my skate components to arrive I'm designing and cutting out the sheet metal for the controller on my Shopbot. It's going to be a 9'x8'x5' 5-axis hotwire foam cutter., framed out of 80/20 aluminum and powered by timing belts and 525 in/oz steppers.
