Anybody got a line on a discount or wholesale place for cut off wheels, packages of 50 or so?

I am cleaning out the stores around me and they don't restock as fast as I use these things.

Thanks.  :turtle:

Couldn't you just walk into one of them stores, say "look assface, order me more crap!" and get it through them?

I just go to Home Depot and get the Norton products (5 1/4 cut offs and sanding discs) for the 3" (?) cut offs for die grinders...I went to a 3m abrasives house in town. I know with as many aircraft manufactureres in Wichita there has to be a 3m dealer.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

Everything is either 3/8 or 7/8 arbor wheels.

What is wrong, no one likes 5/8 arbor disks anymore??

It's a pisser when I find the right size disc, only to notice the wrong size arbor :down:  The 5" seems to be the red headed stepchild of the grinders.

I am thinking of heading to the Makita auth. dealer near work and seeing if they have a 7/8 arbor so I can just order the 10 pcs from HF.
