My Dad built his shed from recycled orange boxes back in the 1940’s.

That's a lot of orange boxes

Many thanks MWin, Im off tomorrow to give it a go,,

Good morning Mwin, update re the angle grinder drive collar, well it fitted but not very well, the spindle on the old B&D grinder is smaller than the Makita, still both M14 but the two flats on the spindle are narrower, so the collar from the Makita was a very sloppy fit on the B&D spindle, but still worked, whereas I suspect the B&D collar wouldnt have fitted the Makita,
I suspect things might be a bit more universal now, the old B&D must be 25yrs old.

No appoligies required Mwin, I was only mentioning it as a matter of intrest,,
The grinder is an odd one, Black and Decker “Pro” I think their attempt at selling better quality tools? and I have to say its been very good,,till the kids got hold of it!
