Re: air driven random orbit sanders

Would love to get my hands on this one as I do a lot of epoxy sanding. But the price is USD495!

So far, my 6-inch Ryobi's doing OK.

BTW, the Mirk-CEROS is electric motor driven.

Re: air driven random orbit sanders

If one does sanding day in day out then this will be a very good tool. Lighter is much better and less tiring.

Re: air driven random orbit sanders

besides, a tool which vibrates a lot will be transferred to joints of the hands producing osteoarthritis...an incapacitating disease as a result of repetitive injury.

what is 495 dollars for that purpose!;)

...and there goes the will power - blown by the wind.

Hurry before your box leaves 😀

PS: Or you may opt for the locally available ROS (mine is a Bosch GEX 12x series)

Re: air driven random orbit sanders

Ha-ha. My last box just left!

Seriously now. The ad says it's half the size and weight of a regular ROS. It then goes on to say that it makes very little noise & vibration. Now, I would think the mass of the thing allows it to dampen the vibration on the hands. So, somewhat contradictory. Now I'm skeptical!
