Review: Just great. - Solid piece of kit, comfortable to use, light and manouverable, nicely balanced. Paddle switch system safe and intuitive. Plenty of power- just let the tool cut at its own speed for safety... Quiet motor- after other brands this is really quiet. Used on hard stone with diamond burrs and mounted stones, and on wood with tungsten burrs. Note: this machine is too fast to use with flap wheels or cut off discs!- and, if you have a few ancient 1/4” (6.35mm) shank stones lying about, the 6mm collet will Not be happy to take them.. Bought as an desertcart warehouse deal- nearly half price, if it was a return, the previous customer didn’t even unwrap it?

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it be used with 240 v ac**
A: Only 120 volts ac

**Q: Is anyone using a storage case or flip top tool box that they would recommend to store the GD0601 die grinder along with some bits and accessories.**
A: Husky makes an approximately 9" x 15" zip top tool bag which will store the grinder, every tool and attachment you are likely to buy and a little room for hearing protection and googles.  Very convenient for storage and arriving at a job site with everything you will need.

**Q: Can this be used as a buffer, polisher for metals like brass, stainless steel etc?**
A: 25,000 rpm is not a good speed for polishing. Most polishing equipment runs much slower, for brass 3000 to 6000 rpm is mentioned.  Surface speed is the important metric, diameter of polishing tool plus RPM determines surface speed. 7,500 feet/minute is a good starting point. Variable speed is definitely a needed option for polishing various materials as the optimum speed changes depending on the polishing compound and the material to polish. Bottom line - this tool is not a polisher

**Q: Could I use this to take rust off the underbody of a car?**
A: Yes you could do. I use mine to grind down synthetic porcelain on insulators that I have just repaired at electrical power stations. It does  not get hot, even when using diamond bits, so rust off the underbody of a car will be no problem.
