Bare-Tool DEWALT DC411B 18-Volt 4-1/2-Inch Cordless Cut-Off Tool
I used this thing for just a couple of things so far. I ground off some rivets while changing the power window regulator on my car and ground down some screws that were poking through a board in a crawl space. It is very convenient, handy, and light weight. A cordless grinder is a must for those quick jobs. But as a someone who has done extensive metal fabricating, I cant get used to the handle design. I would prefer the grinder to actually use a traditional grinder body and handle, just with the battery at the end. I don’t like the raised offset loop type handle. It should just look and feel like a normal 4 1/2 inch grinder. Dewalt should redesign this for the 18 volt nano model.
Mine came in a combo kit with other 18v tools. I fully expected to eBay it away as a bare tool.
Surprise! I’ve used this thing way more often than I expected! Before I could eBay it, I had a use for it. I use it to sharpen shovels and mower blades, and to cut decking bolts. On several occasion, I’ve used it to cut chain and to cut slots in stripped bolt heads.
This tool probably won’t be suitable for all-day grinding, but it’s super handy for those one-off uses as a cordless tool. I’m keeping mine!
This is the handiest tool in my garage. Very pleased with the quality, portability and power of this little guy. Shoulda had one sooner.
I don’t know how some of the other reviewers were using this tool, but I also bought a 4″ diamond blade (an expensive high-quality one with lots of diamonds) for cutting through stucco siding and concrete slabs—it works terrific! I don’t write many glowing reviews, but I can’t say enough good things about this tool. It’s light weight and it runs a long time on a single battery—longer than my DeWalt 18V cordless reciprocating saw—doing serious damage. I’m glad I bought it and I’m glad it’s in my tool kit. The only negative is that it should have a dust collector attachment because this thing kicks up clouds of dust as it devours concrete.
Anyone thinking that this is the same as a standard Dewalt angle grinder with a 120 volt motor/cord will be disappointed. That said, even with this tools limitations on power, it is very handy to not have to lug out cords to do a small grinding or cutting job. If you have budget for only one grinder – and had some heavy grinding to do – get a corded model, for a second, third + grinder, or for only light work this tool can be really handy.
