Scrub A Dub Dub for Abrasive Brushes

I love this thing. It's durable, aggressive and works great. I bought an adapter for my Makita (smaller shaft) and it fits snugly in the 4" hole that cutoff blades normally fit. Firstly, it can be a bit difficult to control the edges and goggles are ABSOLUTELY. NECESSARY! Update July 2013 - I think I'd downgrade it to **** for now I've found that while it does run at less than the maximum speed stated on the brush body, it keeps shedding small wires. It sends them everywhere and they are extremely dangerous. At first I thought it only happened when hitting edges, but now I think it throws wires off even just knocking paint or mill scale off a flat surface for example. I still like the product, but I don't think it's great anymore.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
