this machine is specifically build for sanding and it says you can sand but will need to change the bag after 3 mins.
Well i tried it last night and it lasted more than 3 mins. i stretched it for 2 hours
at the end the fine dust was leaking through the bag so it was time to change but i didnt buy any extra bags.
The sanding tool vibrates which was a suprise to me (and a bonus).
i recommend this this product as the was minimal dust (depending of your technique) and i didnt even wear me mask and goggles.
still worked up a huge sweat tho.
to legacy GT.. and thank you! I was searching for something for a small job I'd been doing to reduce dust and keep me out of trouble with the wife.. this is perfect for DIY plaster jobs.. and it makes a good shop vac/blower as well! Very impressed!!!! I went out and purchased one after reading this thread.. just thought I'd let anyone else out there reading it know
