DSPIAE ES-A Reciprocating Sander Review 

Thanks for sharing your experience too!

@ALAPINO Any experience with the Argofile Artima sanders? I like buy-it-for-life hobby gear and they look like the closest thing in this genera of tool. Your application sounds heavier duty tho.

@@pbkobold I haven't personally used them but they seem okay for the price. The specifications look adequate for hobbyist makers and model makers. Shank and accessory compatibility isn't clear, however. If it's a standard like 3 mm the options are almost endless. If the tooling is proprietary, I would be wary. It really does depend on what you need it for. If you're sanding and profiling soft things you can get really creative with a small budget and a Dremel style tool or micro-pencil grinder (pneumatic grinders can be found for $15-$20 at the low end). If you must have reciprocating action, I would normally advise people to stick to corded options. Cordless options add cost and complexity, with that generally a shorter tool lifespan. Unless the portability is top of your priority list, of course. If you're already invested in a cordless battery ecosystem take a look at that catalogue for their offerings. E.g. Milwaukee M12 has a decent rotary tool. Bosch/Dremel had a cordless, erm, Dremel tool that was good for light duty work. Aside from oscillating multi-tools I'm not aware of any of the big brands offering a micro-reciprocating polisher/sander. It's a pretty niche tool.

Great tips. Thank you so much. I'm removing support marks from resin 3D printed figures and the dremel just isn't delicate enough. I'd never looked at pencil air grinders before and there are a lot of options.

@@pbkobold Have you tried the pencil extension attachments for the Dremel? Using that with smaller shank tooling increases your "feel" and dexterity for fine work. It does seem, from what you've described, something like this or the Argofile would fit your needs well. I wish you luck!

I haven’t tried that myself yet but I can definitely relate to that

@@evolutionxstudios also the led is so useless lol if anything it's just draining battery

@@AsimPaints True :D

You should try running your gummed up sandpaper bits against a sanding belt cleaning block. They aren't magic, but they do more than you might think.

@olinc.6861 I actually tried this, but if you just go back to sanding a primed surface it'll gunk up in two seconds, and the more you try cleaning it off the more the grit deteriorates.

Thank you!

Thanks my man! Happy Easter to you too!

@@evolutionxstudios Thank you 🙂

thanks a lot! Hope you'll like it

Thanks Jerry! You won’t regret it

Good idea!

Totally agree!

thanks for watching! Yeah they are much more convenient to handle!

I like the small rotary tool a bit more yeah

Thank you!

Thanks mate

Thanks for watching!

That would be neat too

Haha, i actually never had problems with the huba buba express

@@evolutionxstudios Really? I must have really bad luck then. Ive had to ask for a refund 3 times on ali baba and 2 times on temu for stuff never showing up. And I dont actually order much either, its a total of maybe 5 orders on each over the years.

You would need to modify an exisiting sanding head but I feel like the stroke that the tool is doing is not enough to properly saw.

You can get them on Aliexpress too, not sure if you'll get it anywhere else.

I am working to start supplying these on my website in the next several months!

totally agree! It's good to have both of them in the tool box and each of them work better for different use cases.

Oh that’s bad. I would contact the seller and try to return it or get a refund

@@evolutionxstudios I hope so too! It's a nifty little device

No it’s definitely not a replacement for a rotary tool like a large dremel but it works better for those small details

Thanks for watching & taking the time to comment!

oh, didn't know that

Totally agree. 90% can be done quicker by hand. I would also take the rotary tool if I’d have to decide between the two

Nah, mate, 40-ish $

we already have the modified toothbrush of course.

I have a modified toothbrush as well but I don’t like it. A toothbrush doesn’t typically spin in one direction but rotates in oje direction and then back. This removes less material

We don’t know…could you?

You win the price!

I gotta pay? What or prize? Do I get to “chosing” the prize?

It is on the pricy side yeah

maybe for you, not for me.

Yeah safety first

Which one exactly?

At twice the price with the transformer included and much larger sanding heads which are no use and not fit for purpose,I think not,you got more money than sense,2 coffee stirrers glued together work with said filing material as well
