Pretty much as the title says.
My DeWalt ROS (5" single speed) has seen better days.
I should replace the pad, but, I don't want to stick about $15 into a $60 sander that might croak off as soon as I do that.
Both Lowes and HD carry a new Bosch 5" variable speed for $49 that claims to have the worlds best dust collection.
I don't know though......
I'm tired of paying through the nose for junk hook and loop disks
That got me looking at sheet sanders.
Decent sand paper is available at both Borgs, unlike the junk disks they sell.
