Does anyone besides Festool make a linear sander?

Nitto makes a straight line back and forth sander. You can get an add on base to shape however you want theve probably been around 30 years or so maybe more ive had one for a long time.

Looks like they're still out there!

ultimate finish sander!

I have one, but I need to get new pads and work on the trigger/switch/air valve.

the pads move in a straight line, in opposite directions. While one is going fwd the other is moving back. Limits vibration to almost nothing.

I've tried to find another manufacturer that may offer a more affordable linear sander with no luck (Festool version: https://www.festoolusa.com/products/...30-eq-plus-usa ). I can't find any other sander that behaves like this one, but maybe I'm just not using the right keywords. Does anything else like this exist?

Belt sander looks me linear...
