    Default grinder/polisher

    Hi Guys
    Looking for a grinder/polisher looked on stone tools at makita 9565cvl, would this be a good choice any ideas?
    Also after a half bull nose profile for 12mm stone for skirting,splashbacks and external corners on walls , have some granite in the garage about 20mm thick been there for years lovely bit of stone would like to do something with it, would there be a profile bit that would do a half round on the two thicknesses or is it two different profile bits
    thanks Phil

    That's the grinder I have Phil, it's spot on for profiling. You will need different profiling bit's if you are wanting to put a half bullnose on two different thickness tiles, I'd say you could get a 12mm and use that on your granite if you were happy having a 12mm bullnose on a 20mm tile.

    I have the makita too, great piec of kit and Stonetools are unbeatable on price.
    I bought a profiling bit with it too and a vanity blade etc.
    Superb all round kit and a joy to use.
