A standard cd/dvd fits perfectly in a 125mm angle grinder? Useless I know but you find these things out when you are bored. Just a minute, it's a free backing pad for a fibre disk.

err...

If you shine one of those laser pointers at the disc while it spinning, can you hear the music?

yes, yes you can

I've tried putting a cutting disc in my CD drive. Funnily enough it sounds just like it does when it's in the angle grinder!

Strange..... i angle grinded my CD player and it sounded nothing like the CD's i play on it.
However.... the wife did sound like the angle grinder when she got home

Did you not see the Mythbusters when they did this and the CD's shattered sending shards across the room firmly into their balistics dummy!!!

Pat...

I was just about to point out how 'deadly' a CD can be!

them things are SHARP!

I was just comparing them side by side and realised how similar they were. I have a flexible vinyl backing pad for my fibre disks, ah the good old days of vinyl. Now where's an old 78 to try in my cut off saw ?

78 rpm ? Now that's a proper cut off saw.
