Took me 5 years to figure out this one little grinding trick
I was burning through flap discs like crazy on stainless tanks in Houston, maybe 3 or 4 per job. A older guy told me to run the grinder at half throttle and let the disc do the work instead of pushing down hard, and now one disc lasts through two whole jobs. Anybody else have a stupid simple thing that took them forever to catch onto?

My buddy's old man taught me that same thing on a job in Beaumont back in '08. Funny part was he also said to keep the cord over your shoulder so you don't trip and wrap it around your leg. That little tip saved me from eating shit more times than I can count.

Trip over it once and you'll learn why keeping it loose is actually safer in the long run.
