Do highly recommend a 5in. grinder though: 4in. blade disappears too quick, the 9in. disc is not much thinner than a standard cutting disc so does not make much of a difference. Personally I only use a plasma as a last resort, as I am wary of the toxic crap they put in to the air. Doors open and fans on and face mask.

Sounds like you are enjoying getting to grips with this new field.
Rich,
I am using what I would say is a fine disc and its 4in from rock abrasives (german company) it was $1.75

talked to my neighbor and asked him about my technique of grinding, I was making short cuts skimming the top of the metal, he told me I am supposto cut thru the metal first then carry the cut the rest of the way.

so I will give my grinder another try.

yep I enjoy this work
tho I sort of want to actually start on my jeep with progress
