And another one that came in very recently, highly recommended by bro JayL for metal workers, I have not yet peeled off the bluish film covering of the shield. I do think bro Ryobi has this one too.

Such great looking face shield, a must really for metal workers !!!!!

Re: Show your recent tool purchase/s ( The Tool/s Loot )

And then lastly for now, this one I got from an on line seller in Sulit.com, another surplus from Australia I think but it carries a good brand name, very popular in Europe, USA and now in Asia maybe. Engineering and design is from Germany but now a days been manufactured in China.

Sigh..... what else is new, most power tools now are being manufactured in China.

This item is " ALMOST BRAND NEW " in other words, slightly used, maybe for testing or demo, complete with accessories with free 2 pcs extra sanding belt, though I have not tested it yet. Well the make/construction of the belt sander looks sturdy or well built.

Re: Show your recent tool purchase/s ( The Tool/s Loot )

It has a port for a dust bag and an attachment for a vacuum dust cleaner.

l

Another thing I like about this belt sander even though its China made is the power frequency indicated on the label, its 50 - 60hz, simply perfect for our power frequency here.

Re: Show your recent tool purchase/s ( The Tool/s Loot )

Bro Ding, on the contrary I'm still very happy with the OZITO belt sander, no problem at all with its performance. Reason I purchased another one is/are, 1. I have another unit as back-up, 2. Its an AEG brand and wanted to see how it performs, 3. Price is very affordable/very cheap, 4. Lastly, I like the over all design and color .

I do believe there are a lot of AEG power tools in the market now, specially sa SULIT, " BRAND NEW AND ALMOST BRAND NEW " again these are surplus tools from maybe Australia, like the GMCs, RYOBIs, OZITOs. HOMELITEs, XU1s and others and they are priced 1/3rd or less of the original USD prices. In the coming days I will be buying more tools of this brand.

Re: Show your recent tool purchase/s ( The Tool/s Loot )

HI there bro JayL,

I have here a link of some of the discussions regarding the AEG Belt Sander model HBS 1000 E.

You might be interested in this read from the WOODWORKING FORUMS, and their topic is about " Why is AEG cheap ". Take note clearly the explanation of member gerhard , why AEG is now related to the RIGID brand. :p 😀

link ; http://www.woodworkforums.com/archive/index.php/t-107030.html

So I presume that belt sander at amazon branded as RIGID was also manufactured in CHINA, LOL.

Re: Show your recent tool purchase/s ( The Tool/s Loot )

Here is another AEG Belt Sander, still colored orange and black sold by ELEKTOWERK INC. but a different model, I just don't know if it is a China made belt sander or not.
