What state are you in?
Aldi have a special on angle grinders this week for $20.
I've used an angle grinder a few times now.
Yeah, angle grinder will do the trick if you're comfortable using one.

But where are you located? You should fill in your details in your account. Would make it easier to help you out in the future when you have questions etc?
Just edited my profile im in sydney
if you dont end up getting a chain breaker, just grind straight through the chain. Or use bolt cutters - that's what i did ;)

I recommend getting a chain press tool for putting the chain on though, if you're using a clip link chain.
Just had a chat with a friend that did his chain and sprocket not long ago said he had a bit of trouble putting the chain on. Definately might need some help if anyone is able to give me a hand with this thanks
Take it to a mechanic and get them to do it, I wouldn't advise you doing it yourself after reading your other thread about the chain falling off :O

Just a thought - they're not that expensive.

Ok guys me and AJ26 are gonna try do it this sunday but still cant get a chain breaking kit, so we are gonan try do it with just a grinder. But if any one is willing to lend me one for the day it would make it so much easier. As to Sneddy cant really afford chain and sprocket plus the breaker still a student so money is pretty scarce =/
ive got a grinder....where u guys doing it?
