I wanted to stop back and thank everyone who offered advice on which
belt sander to buy, especially Lew and Mike. I bought the Porter Cable,
model 352, 3 X 21 and I'm glad. I've used it on a few projects since and it
works and handles like a champ. I was considering the PC model 362, 4 X 24,
however I don't do large projects. Anyway thanks for the assistance, I
really appreciate it. Randy

you will be most happy.....we use the heck out of these around the
school here....a word of caution....after several jobs of heavy
sanding take the black cover off and blow it out with air....it will
stop dust build up and save you from replacing the belt!
