Found a pneumatic 2" sander at harborfreight tonight. Some of the others that others mention are expensive, this was $25 hook and loop pad. The sanding head does orbit around. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=93629 I'm going to get one of the foam pads for hook and look from CSUSA and some good sanding discs. It does seem ruggedly built. Hope that is helpful.

I own it and am not a fan. Maybe with a different pad but I found that it is not horribly reliable. I moved over to the right angle drill soon after purchasing the pnuematic.

Problem (?) with air drills and sanders in small private shop is that you gotta run a big compressor to do the work of a 1/4 hp or less electric tool. Beyond that, air tools can indeed be very handy.
