Thread: Cordless sander recommendations?

    That looks like a handy sander also. There are times when one wants to get into a square corner. I have the Makita 18 volt system also. I will take a look at it

    Makita sells the adapters - you need 22mm to …….. ?

    they call them “cuffs”.

    frankly , their whole dust port system is retarded.


    this hose is the best solution I’ve found:

    Wouldn’t worry about the size of the hose too much on your shop vac.

    I gave the Bosch 18v and the 12v a shot side by side. Both are great, but the balance and weight savings on the 12v were impossible to deny. Both are excellent sanders but I'll be keeping the 12v.
