                    I am looking to cut some paving slabs in the back garden. This will involve approx 10 slabs.
What size angle grinder will I need?
i probably won’t use the angle grinder again, so it really is temporary although I will keep it with the rest of my tools?
Please help ☺️

            If its a one off use then hiring would be better.

            I think the 230mm would be fine. Cost to rent is 15 for one week. Though I got a wolf grinder 115mm for just over 30, probably too small.When you look into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you. Nietzsche
Please note that at no point during this work was the kettle ever put out of commission and no chavs were harmed during the making of this post.0 - 
            The blade needs to be bigger than the paving slabs otherwise you wont be able to get through the slab without cutting from both sides.0
