Hello. Does anyone use one of these or know of one, other the Fein? The Fein goes for about six or seven hundred. I'm talking about a regular rotary sander, grinder, or polisher speed type sander. Are any others out there made to be used with dust collection? Thank you.

Festool: RAS115 which is only 4.5".
Also Festool RAS180 which is not sold in US.

Unitec is the only company I know that sells a true 7" rotary with dust collection but I think they are more than the Fein. http://www.csiunitec.com

There are several companies that have Orbit Sanders with dust collection. These would be the Festool Rotax, Bosch 1250DEVS, and others.

I think you will find most people working with wood would find that an orbit sander is the most agressive and hardest to control sander that they would want and won't really understand much about a rotary.
