Nobody has any input at all? Surprising...


I just picked up a DeWalt D26451 for a bit over 50 bucks and I'm very
pleased with it, so far. *It's pretty quiet, doesn't give me numb-hand,
and the built in dust collection is decent.


It is hard to argue with 50 dollars, even if the performance is only
at 75% to that of a Festool. ( 75% of 5 x 8 hour days, will give you
an extra day off every week.)


EEK! *40 hours per week _sanding_? *
Even with a festerl, that would be hell.
