Is 240 watt 1/4" electric die grinder ok for P&P?

Mark,
    The important factor is that you never go over 20000 rpm when doing a p&p. Actually, most
abbrasives work best/last longest at 10000 rpm. Electric ones tend to be overzealous on the speed
and well chew through bits in no time. Be sure to check out this site:

they have a couple of extremely good diy guides in acrobat format, as well as the fact that they
make all of the kits necessary to do the job.
Enjoy!
Al
