For heavy cutting I use either Eastwwood or Standard Abbrasive's bits, for lighter cutting the swapmeet ones will work, but if you apply too much pressure or get them too hot they tend to self-destruct with the bit seperating from the shank! Not a good thing having razor sharp metal flying around!

The bits come in course to fine cutting as well

Not sure who in NJ carries S-A, but there is a place close in PA

For the die grinder itself, I had a Craftsman but it didn't work so well, so I bought a snap-on (straight), I also have a grizzle angle die grinder, the grizzle is actually a nice peice.

The grinder requires allot of air volume so you need a good compressor ( I'm sure you already have one ).
