I'm going to get a new orbital sander and I wanted to get your thoughts on which. I do realize these two models have some substantial differences.
I have a couple of the standard 5" palm sanders (Dewalt and Ryobi) which work well. I'm looking to upgrade to include better dust collection and performance.
I haven't used the 6" varieties and I'm hoping the 6" Bosch GET75-6N could basically replace my old PC belt sander.
I like the Bosch ROS65VC and I can get 5" and 6" pads for it so it has the advantage of using up my 5" pads.
The ROS65VC is a less powerful sander than the GET75-6N and I'm thinking it may disappoint in terms of replacing the belt sander.
If you have any experience or thoughts with these 2 sanders or the difference in the larger more powerful 6" orbital sanders (I'd call almost a "2-hand") versus the 5"/6" versions then I'd like to hear.
