HF 2" Sander any opinions
 

I'll looking to get a 2" air sander and I ran into this one from
Harbor Freight
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=93629

I have a 20% off coupon so I could get it for 20$, seems like a hard
deal to pass up. Has any one used any Central pneumatics tools?

As always, YMMV. I have used Central Pneumatic tools for my business,
and have had different levels of success. Some work very well, offset
by those that are total junk.

I think that is pretty much the case with all the HF tools, but the
flipside to that is that you certainly aren't paying premium prices
for their stuff.

The best thing about HF is that they have a very liberal return
policy. If you don't like it, take it back and they will gladly
exchange it or give your money back.

Hi Terry,

I've been using this sander for a year or so now to sand the bowls I turn.
It's worked very well for me. I'd give it a try. Like nailshooter said, with
their return policy if you don't like it right away you can always return
it.

I have their die grinder and 2 sizes of brad drivers and they've been great,
worth a bit more than the sale prices that I paid for them, IMO..
I bought their small body saw and was disappointed (partly because my compressor
really wasn't up to the job), and they let me return it with no hassles..

If this is the tool I think it is, I bought one about a year or so
ago. It seems to work just fine for the things I've used it on. You
do of course need a compressor that is capable of supplying it enough air
though.

One quirk about it though. Unless something has changed, since I
bought mine, HF doesn't seem to sell 2" sanding discs. I was able to
get more from Woodcraft though.

I've been using this item for over a year. I works as well as my $120
pneumatic random orbital sander. Did I mention it's a RO sander, the
description fails to mention this significant fact. While you're at
it, buy this item http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=95394
.. This kit includes a 3" H&L pad and some other attachment you can put
to good use.

I run this and my other unit with a 5HP 30 Gal compressor. It doesn't
take long to kick-in the compressor. However you can use the sander in
"passive mode" till the compressor catches up. Frankly, on some woods
I find the passive mode works better.
