Had stocked up several months ago on close out grinding wheels and cut off wheels. Just placed my order. Thanks for the heads up. Great buy.

Well - I disagree with the flapper discs being "Free". I got mine, and shipping was fast! BUT - they're the type with the 7/8" open center whereas my 4 1/2" grinder is the 5/8" male stud type.

So, now the "no so free" part. There's no way I'm going to just throw away 10 very good assortment of flapper discs. The only solution that I can think of is to buy a brand new additional grinder :) Hello DeWalt, here I come. awww heck - now I have to buy yet another tool. I guess I'll just have to get over it.

That is a great outcome. Getting a new grinder is always a good thing.

Just use your grinding wheel base and nut. All of your grinding wheels are the 7/8" open center.

I had a similar epiphany after getting my discs in the mail. I bought my son who let me (us) in on this flapdisc promotion a new Fein angle grinder for Christmas, just in case they wouldn't work on his old Makita! ;)

That is what I do also. You may need a spacer washer depending on the grinder arbor. Mine needs about 3/16" of spacer to tighten down properly on a flap wheel.
