Fantastically lightweight โ€œfinger sanderโ€

on pneumatic models. It's pretty much light duty; and that makes it sooooo handy for my immediate purpose. I use it to sand down critical areas on my small 3D wood sculptures. It works very well but is a little louder than the Dremel MotoTool. Its small, narrow grinding surface gives the impression that you are grinding with an "electric finger". (very easy to use) (feels very natural) (makes loops almost easy). The variable speed setting on this is a fantastic feature. Definitely recommendโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Tool-less belt installation allows for quick and easy on-the-job changes
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Unacceptable quality

The old adage says "You get what you pay for" and it couldn't be more applicable to this item. I usually avoid cheap Chinese tools, but I saw positive reviews and decided to give it a try. The positive points I can point out are that the belt tension system keeps the belts in place so they don't slip and the speed control gives a good range. Now for the not so good ones. There is no way to adjust the tape run. Immediately after unpacking, it shifted a little to the side. It got worse afterโ€ฆ

Pros
  • The speed control runs the belt between 1080 and 1800 fpm
Cons
  • Small change

best mower sharpener

Sharpening mower blades dulls the file. The grinder doesn't let you see. With an angle grinder you can see, but the speed (150 mph) makes it difficult. It can be inaccurate and require the effort of realignment. The edge doesn't stay very sharp. I suspect that a wheel spinning at that speed could overheat the thin edge. At top speed my sander scrapes at 20 mph so there is much less risk of the edge overheating. The belt is much cheaper to replace than the file. When I start sharpening, theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Automatic belt system requires no tension or adjustment. Range of Motion: 50ยฐ
Cons
  • Obsolete
