    Thanks, Bobby. What kind of rpm's are required to make it work well? Are you using an electric tool or air with it?

    Randy I just used my electric angle grinder . Spun it at 20K rpm but never had it come apart from that .

    Great progress Bobby. Almost makes me wish I had kept my slant windshield 'A' - and a sedan could eventually replace my roadster if for no other reason then leg room (but maybe not )

    Even Home Depot carries those in their tool section, right where the grinding discs are. They are blue. I have also used the black ones, which are more agressive, but hard to find. As Bobby said, wear long sleeves and eye protection, the little pieces fly off and sting pretty good sometimes.

    Bobby,
    Checked at the local H F and they don't have them, they had 4 1/2 twist lock but no backer plate. Went to H F online and no luck. Are you sure it was harbor Freight?

    Home Depot and Lowe's both (at least locally) have 3M or Norton discs or wheels
