Those things develop a lot of force when they let go. I got hit in the chest with a 14" chop saw blade, not fun. Hope you are all right. It's also a good time to remind everyone to always use safety glasses when grinding. It could have hit you in the face.

The tool it was on will only do 25k with no load. I was going to shine up a circle with the fine grit pad. I didn't even have it touching the metal yet when it did that - just getting ready to put it down.

Good thing it did not hit you in the head. A Friend of mine had a grinding wheel explode and put part of it into his leg.

Thanks, I'll take a look.
Mac had it for $23 - I would not think twice about that price if it isn't going to try to kill me!
