    Dust extractor for garage size man cave

    Just to update you, to those who answered me (thanks!) I ordered the Record Power sander. It arrived and was faulty - the disc was loose and wobbled & rattled.

    Record Power vs Axminster Sander

    Hi, I'm new to this Forum. I can't decide between the Record Power belt & disc sander (the £159 one - currently reduced to £139 during their "Christmas Cracker" discount) and the Axminster one (£119). Any advice? Are RP better than Axminster? Same? Here's an interesting couple of points I...
