Angle grinder not really suitable as a substitute for a power sander.
Plus, incorrectly used, its one of the most dangerous tools going.
Or can you get a do-hickeyLol, yeah, you can get a straight-line fence or just use clamps to clamp a straight edge on. If money isn't a bother then go for the mitre saw. I suffer from the same affliction, toys for big boys. A good tip is to go to tool hire shops and ask if they'll sell you one ex-hire. They're usually very well maintained and surprisingly new, esp. in the bigger shops like Careys (no affiliation). I'm in the trade and buy a lot of my gear this way and always satisfied.
Yeah - most of the good ones come with an adjustable edge-guide, but you may be better off using a straight-edge clamped securely to the work-piece and work-bench.... Or can you get a do-hickey to keep the line straight without relying 100% on steady hands and laser sighting?...
p.s. big girls need big toys too
I've tried the rest but it's hard to beat Axminster on range of tools, price or qulaity of after sales.
