If you had to pick one of these sander which one would you pick and or way ? Are they worth getting? I am not sure if it maters but the belts aren’t that long. Any insight on edge sanders would be helpful, things to look for or things you need more than others,etc…
The reason I ask there is one of each of these machines in my area both are in like new condition and only a few years old and could pick either one up for about $300.00 to $400.00 ea
