Hi my name is Griffin

Radke. I like to help people learn the proper way to change cutting wheels on grinders and other power tools, in a fast and easy way. Some people have the fear of cutting a finger or hitting their knuckles while trying to do this. I help them do this in a safe and effective way. I’m going to show you all the steps you need to get this done so quickly your boss will be proud. I’m going to show you a killer way to get back to the job as quick as possible. You probably already know this but, changing a cutting wheel is a key part of working on the job.
