I am looknig for a 3" ros electric not air powered to help finish some my carved turnings, I found the metabo but it's $120 I was hoping to find one a little more economical.
thanks,
Bob

I have one from SnapOn, but I don't think it was less than that, can't swear to it, its been a few years of hard running and it still works as advertised. I like it, it has a pistol grip and handles really well.

Bob,
Dynabrade makes a 3" ROS. It is driven by air. I have 2 5" ROS's and they are awesome sanders. Not a lot of moving parts. Nice thing about Dynabrade is that when you let off the trigger they stop immediately. Not like the electrics that keep on going.
Hope that helps.

Quinn,
thanks but I don't have a big compressor to run an air driven sander. I need an electric. I might need to bite the bullet and buy the metabo

FWIW I've had Metabo's big 12" CSMS for two+ years and it performs outstandingly well.
I have no issues with the design or build quality of the saw.
