You might start with a $20 angle grinder as its cheaper, and no biggie if you find it isn't ideal. Probably a bit more flexibility too
Charles, you beat me to it. I would say definitely both.
However, I agree that the angle grinder is a little more mobile. You do need a good vise to hold your stuff though. With a bench grinder, be sure it's bolted down well.
