    i could just get on without one, think i'd just rather it was there tbh, im not that big on safety glasses either() so it'd probably benefit me to get a replacement sorted..

    nah its a flimsey bit of plastic, didnt realise quite how flimsey it was....
    managed to take a guard off of one of my old grinders, bore out a hole and bolt it on,
    looks like something off robot wars but it works a bit!
    thanks for the offer though mate thats real good of you
