In this video I’m reviewing a Makita 4 1/2”- 5” class cordless angle grinder with a brushless motor. In this review I’ll go over my reason for purchasing a cordless grinder, features of the grinder, battery life, general performance and ergonomics, safety features, a few minor negatives, my opinions after using the grinder for three years, how to differentiate between different models of 4 1/2” angle grinders in Makita’s cordless line-up.

Mini Ball Head
The small ball head I use on the end of my mini boom has been out of production for years. This is a selection of similarly sized small ball heads. Buy a ball head with a metal ball and socket. The plastic ones are trouble.
