I purchased a used one as the piece is a bit pricey, but the machine ru-vid.comUgkxG6fbm3cHBd7CNTjk5D-dwYe9c9tCB9ZN has surpassed my expectations. We sand small parts by hand often, sized around 1"x1/2," and specifically look for a piece that's designed to be vertical. The motor has plenty of torque and great speed settings. The only inconvenience I had is that the disk measures 5" where we trim 6" stick-and-sand disks down easily by mounting it then cutting with a box cutter.
Lower the handle and she goes left , rise the handle and she goes right. Simply and how I learned years ago when the boss leave the buffer and I had to learn on my own on the jobsite
He did good for the first time!! I've had guys put it into the wall. It looks so easy and it is once you learn how to use it. If not, it can get out of control pretty quick.
I surely believe she will cut all around when you do a progressive gently walk around going on a good balance, other wise she will cut where your pressure is and leading left to right, so cutting up or down. In Brazil we even have some proper heavy disc sander to do the entire sanding and it's all tha same
Jeff Raymondville $3-$5 a square foot is what I charge, but it all depends on if, and how much wax, and what type of finishes were used. Use Waterlox floor finish, expensive but good product.
I don't get it. The theory seems to be that the buffer will blend in your side sanding with your main sanding. I rented a buffer from Home Depot, and used a 100 grit screen. It was like riding a wild bull. It left ugly swirl marks all over my beautifully sanded floor. That's supposed to be an improvement?
You aren't using it right and not following these simple instructions. Back and forth with the grain because it cuts at 3 o'clock in the same direction as the drum sander. Make sure you tighten the handle at the correct position before starting and it won't feel like riding a bull. You see how easy this person is doing it?
@@fraydcat So a spinning thing is supposed to move "back and forth"? It moves in an arc. My advice is rent a square buff instead, it won't wreck your floors.
