Well, the fellas who work the wood (as I've been known to do in private, myself) have an outstanding maiming attachment for the angle grinders - a chainsaw disk. I assume that's tongue in cheek as anyone seriouly asking most certainly shouldn't be allowed near one. Watch as Woodcarving Illustrated magazine’s technical editor, Bob Duncan, and his assistant, Alex Giagnocavo, demonstrate and review chainsaw carving discs for angle grinders.

Consumers, local authority trading standards and businesses are asked to take specific action to cease use or remove them from the market. Warwickshire County Council Trading Standards is urging Warwickshire residents, including workers in the construction industry, DIY enthusiasts and wood carvers and sculptors to stop using chainsaw discs being sold as attachments for angle grinders. This tungsten carbide cutter is flying around at 10,000 rpm, inches from your knuckles with no protection! I genuinely don't know which tool it is designed to a be attached to, given that it has the angle grinder fitting, and is always marketed as being for an angle grinder.Or is Mr Elf just indulging in a little propaganda (also known also "a lie") to justify outlawing the tool?

I have an Arbortech disc which is much safer but can still cause serios damage but at least no chain to fly off into your face at great velocity. Je recommande vivement ce disque bois meuleuse à tous ceux qui cherchent un outil de qualité pour le travail du bois.
