Thanks for the tip.

I have to admit...I might be tempted to buy one of those Ebay
knock-offs...just see how they compare to the real thing. . But I notice
that most of the sellers I checked seem to have a higher than average
amount of negative feedback. And some seem to pad the shipping
(i.e....$16.99 to ship a lightweight tool).

You can find reasonably good Sioux look-a-likes on Ebay. Just do a search
for "close-quarter drills". They sell for around $40. There are also
reconditioned Milwaukee and Sioux brands available.

I have come to the stage where non-powered sanding just is not good enough
(elm and ash bowls of 15"-20") and I have searched the Google for advice
as to what other people use.

The gadget with most appeal to me seems to be the Sioux, right-angle

drill,

(electric, _not_ pneumatic!)
currently _not_ sold by Amazon, and - it seems - nowhere else either.

Anybody out there with some advice as to what I can do, or with some
alternative drill that can do the same job satisfactorily?
