- In this video I show you how useful a smaller grinding disc can be when working on inside corners, and more delicate and intricate materials. This is the Pferd combidisc system. A 2” - 3” grinding disc that mounts on a 1/4” arbor in your die grinder. The quick change aspect of this can really be awesome when switching consumables, and getting work done!
To learn more about the combidisc system, check out the Pferd website here.

A HUGE point in any shop work is that the tool is not as important as the cutter. I own a quality set of cobalt drill bits that have outlasted multiple hand drills. Consumable quality really matters. Thanks Chris
The only time I’ve ever broken a cobalt drill bit (dewalt if that matters) was in storage, I went to gather things up and noticed it was broken in two in the package
Long time ago bought a Roloc kit and went through the 2" consumables quick $$$. Now I use a friends Laser @60W and copious cheap sanding belt offcuts (cut from the back)to make thousands of pads for nix. Cut em 2" round and cross hair the centre. I never take the roloc out of the grinder, just overlay one of my pads and run a course 3/8"long flat head screw into the old roloc installed. When my pad runs out I take out screwe and put a fresh one on. Now it's cheap and I'm never afraid of tearing or mashing up a consumable.
I bought this die grinder after you featured it in another video, and then a friend bought one after he used mine. Really changes welding in both PREP and POST welding. Long time viewer. I am NOT a pro welder, its just a hobby, that being said anything that makes the hobby more enjoyable is worth the cost.
That’s how I look at automotive repair, anything bought for a job that can be used on other things instantly doesn’t count to the cost of that project
M12 die grinder was one of my best purchases for metal work. Very versatile tool. One of my favorite things is because it can run slower than an angle grinder it can work really well at mill scale removal without clogging the disc.
I now have a die grinder and new angle grinder, both with variable speed, both corded. Various consumables state that they need to run slower than many single speed tools run. I have seen several demos of people like yourself, who use wire wheels and grind disks, burrs, etc., getting better results at reduced speeds. That is exactly why I bought variable speed die and angle grinders; way more versatile.
Good video. Please keep them coming. I’m an old welder, metal fabricator. I wish we had these available 50 years ago! Thanks
It would have been nice, even only once.
To have done one of your sample runs in real time. It's nice to hear how the tool sounds while working.
Outside of that, total thumbs up.
I had a lot of old pipes and rebar to cut up and from what I read ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxPDBfLu68o58Aw85O_J-zIFfjJARBhp-3 this would be the tool for the job. Since I had never used one, I watched a couple of youtube videos and I'm so glad I did. Some really good safety tips, which I followed, and this tool did a splendid job. One good thing to know is the weight of the tool puts just about the right amount of pressure on the metal I was cutting, so I didn't have to use a lot of pressure, which is more likely to jam the tool. It made fast work of my job.
Chris, I really enjoy your tool tip videos! Always learning something new or refreshes my memory about something you've covered in the past. Always better to quickly learn from others than to stumble around and maybe learn what I need! Keep the tool tips videos coming (I'm sure Derek from Malden needs them! 😁)!
What a great video Chris. Very well explained and very informative video. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge On. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. Don't Die. God bless.
Awesome video with nice, clear instruction. I’ve been searching for info on just this type of application. Perfect. Thanks for posting.
Nice explanation for what has been a perplexing issue.
I had the M12 Milwaukee one but once I tried the Ryobi, I sold it and got the Ryobi. That thing is powerful. The Milwaukee was smaller, but it bogged down, or cut out too easily. I love the ryobi one.
My bro owns both and the Milwaukee sits on the shelf.
Thanks for the videos Chris, they've been helpful.
Really appreciate this informative video ! I’m new to these as a sculptor and needed the help 🙌🙌🙌
Great video. A must have tool for metal fab/welding. Tend to grab this more often than full size grinder. Mahalo for sharing! : )
great video, have the same one :) We're restoring a 60s Opel at the moment and together with my angle grinder we are stripping the axles before sandblasting. Works great!
anyone looking at this i would recommend the ryobi cordless die grinder over the milwaukee. Much more powerful and robust tool.
Hey Chris, thanks! Super helpful
76 yr old hobby welder: I made a mess out of a basin I put together that leaks and has way too much crudy welding that I need to remove. I have little experience with a die grinder that I know know I need. I want a corded variable speed angle die grinder...I think. The video gave me better insight into the tools/disks I need. This is the third video I've watched by "Make Everything". Thank you.
I've been waiting for a good deal on one of those Milwaukee die grinders.
Great video and information , Keep up the great work .
Love to see a video regarding air compressors.
I never knew about Roloc flap discs. I do now, thanks!
Thank you for the content!
Excelent video ! Thanks. Would like to see how you polish tubes, example a motorcycle frame.
Hey Chris, when it comes to those inside corners of the frames, nothing squares out the weld bulge like a couple strokes of a flat bastard file. Unless you are using a pristine pad, you likely end up rounding off the corner edge of the material like it appeared to be on that tubing. That being said, they excel on all other applications as you pointed out. Love your content, keep it up!
Thank you for sharing!
Roloc and similar have been used for many decades. There are a variety of systems so read before choosing. BTW everything 3M makes is worth trying.
Very good. I've been using the roloc system for a couple of years and it rocks. I'm using a small air tool and it's fine, but I want to trade up to team red for this. I think they still make the very best small angle die grinder. For removal of rust, paint etc from bigger areas you can't beat the larger size as they are more consistent. Also, for small areas a finger sander will always beat a 2" grinder, but for polishing etc a roloc sysem is best. A little surprised you didn't mention the finger sander for very tight spaces but no dramas. Also, I always think an angled grider is easier to operate than a straight one. Like the top abrasive idea and shoult out to the Cubritron pads from 3M. Pricey but good. Thanks for the vid!
I picked up some combidisc disks a couple years back. I planned to get a die grinder, but didn't until now. My variable speed die grinder's lowest speed is way faster than the spec's on the combidisc disks.
My old hand drills, and new triple reduction drill, are low RMP's and I didn't find any real use for these disks. Now I find that my die grinder is too fast for them.
There must be better(faster running) combidisc disks, than what I picked up at a hardware store, because what I bought is clearly not suited to die grinder use. I need a faster hand drill for the ones I bought; and I need faster combidisc disks for my die grinder....
Update to earlier comments. The combidisc disks I bought at the hardware store were only meant for a high speed drill. I will soon have one. I also see now, that many companies make combidisc type consumables, made for much higher speed, even faster than my die grinder...which makes sense. If some brand says two inch disks for a drill, you best look closely for the max RPM.
The disks you showed on your die grinder are what I am looking for; especially the starter kits. The links you provided to PFERD kits, now shows unavailable. I can only find their products in expensive 10 packs, for example...die grinder or angle grinder.
Were I currently in business as a welder, and not just very fussy and still learning, it would be worth $100 for a bunch of nice disks......but those would outlast me, unless I get really busy lol
I have been to PFERD web sites, have downloaded their catalog, searched for online and local sellers. So far I have not found where I can buy one or two of something from PFERD, there is not even product numbers for single units of most disks, and wire cups etc.. I have already written to PFERD to tell them I like their products...from what testing I have seen...but I don't need 10 of everything, costing many hundreds......probably won't hear back. I am not planning to spend enough!
I am not done looking for a local supplier that will sell individual units of disks from PFERD, but I already have ordered some consumables locally, that I really do not know the quality of.
I see several manufactures that also make quality angle grinder and die grinder attachments, and so I am looking into them as well. Walter, 3M, etc..
There is another thing that is difficult, if you want both a quality product, and the correct/best one for the job; that is, figuring out what all the different ingredients/compositions are designed to do, and what materials actually make good quality, and what materials used means it is cheap one time use dangerous crap.
Perhaps there are other well made brands of starter kits, or small job kits, or sample kits, for die grinders and angle grinders??? I like how the PFERD kits are(were) geared towards a specific type of job: prep to paint, mirror finishing. I think this is the way to sell to smaller/home work shops. Then when we find that we use one or two disks more than others, then it would make sense to purchase a pack of 10 or more.
Suggestions?
Great video !!!! thank You !! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😇
Love it!
The 3m bristle discs are cool you should have included as they are in there own class
Thật tuyệt vời khi đam mê, ý thích làm điều mình muốn làm, tôi cũng rất thích những công việc như bạn
Ryobi makes a nice little 18 volt grinder.
What retailer do you use for your Pferd Abrasives ?
Great video very informative. I’ve just bought a Katsu 3” Angel Grinder, a nice little tool. I’m just getting back into DYI and a small project I’ve in mind.
However, I need some advice please on the various accessories & attachments I can buy & use with the Katsu… Arbours, size etc etc etc… Tried clicking your website & apparently it doesn’t exist anymore…
Any advice would be helpful and invaluable…
I'm definitely going to have to get me some of these. I have to rework a lot of welds in work from a shitty robot welder and have been just using a grinding bit and a wire wheel and you don't get the cleanest finish. How long do these sanding discs typically last? I'm welding aluminium so I assume they'll last longer than on steel
what kind of polishing compound did you use??
Any secret to keeping the rolock from flying off? I love them but the flapper disc's seem to like to come off and go bouncing across the room...
I have a question. I may have a large job where we have to remove lead paint and rust from 2 stairwells of 20 floor building. We can use grinders but they must have a shroud on them. How can i get this job done quickly and what do you recommend? We will have a 7 person crew on this job.
Are thous tools can use w/metal cut
I have the Ryobi version of this and the flap disc that locks in keeps coming off at first I thought is was the amazon brand then I bought 3m and they still fly off, I've reduced speeds as well any insight on this.
We used them for years in the aviation community, Eck usmc
I've been searching for that small 2" disc u called Victograin that u used on the inside corner, but I can't find it anywhere. Could u leave a link for that 2" blue victograin disc please
I haven't found That electric angle die grinder in other brands than Milwaukee. Any ideas?
Where did you get that wrench holder?
I have that M12 die grinder. I do love it a lot, and use it quite bit on brake and other rust or metal cleanup. It also works very well with carbide burs. How does the speed and torque of the Ryobi compare? Is it stronger or weaker, by feel?
I had the M12 Milwaukee one but once I tried the Ryobi, I sold it and got the Ryobi. That thing is powerful. The Milwaukee was smaller, but it bogged down, or cut out too easily. I love the ryobi one.
@@Omardottcom cool! I have every color tool there is. 199 with 2-3 batteries seems decent. I will be picking one up. Yeah the red does cut out easily. But I do like the right angle of it. Pistol grip isn’t a prob in most situations. I hope she’s got the power I’m hoping for.
Do you have a link for the blue Victograin grinding disc? Been looking but can't seem to locate that particular item. Thanks. Very informative video.
I'd also be interested in this. I can't find them anywhere either
They sale rolock adapter for angle grinders on Ebay
I've been looking for a 90 degree die grinder corded but i cant find anything, are there any? :(
What are your thoughts on right angle vs straight die grinder if I can only have one?
I have a couple of both and use the right angle much more than the straight one, I feel it’s easier to control
How is that ryobi die grinder?
Just ordered one. I was in debate ryobi or Milwaukee but I ended up going with the ryobi sense I have more batteries and thinking I can get more run time
It’s excellent!!
@@MakeEverything thanks!
what was in the spray bottle
Just regular windex if I remember correctly
Cool !=8)
I bought this grinder and Pferd combidiscs and initially couldn't get the discs to fit. Turns out the die grinder was assembled incorrectly. This video is really helpful: ua-cam.com/video/cc5S3q0o2W4/v-deo.html
Too aggressive for autobody panels. Roloc bristle discs are great because they don't remove metal or change the shape.
Thing is, with Dewalt, you can use 60v battery in 20v tools. With Milwaukee, you can't.
Don’t MAKE EVERYTHING Die! Just “Grind”!!!
Missing some stars on that flag
Si basically a knockoff 3M Roloc system….what’s revolutionary about this? 😂
hello//hello...Just can't hear a thing you're saying..you're being drowned out by the flag...try again without the maga flag...should work better...
Then maybe this video isn't for you.
