A few years ago I purchased the Festool ETS125 REQ sander, it was the "Blue" sustainer model for $99. I also have the small CT SYS Festool dust extractor that is dedicated to only the sander.
I was thinking of getting another sander, either the Rotex 125 or the Rotex 90. The 125 has the benefit of using the same 5 inch paper as the ETS125, but the Rotex 90 will fit into smaller areas....both offer the different pad rotations.My question/concern is will either of these sanders make the original ETS125 finishing "obsolete"?
Better to match paper size or get the smaller diameter pad? The ETS125 has a 2mm sanding orbit while the Rotex 125 has a 3.6mm sanding orbit. would the sanders be "duplicating" what each one does?
Any input or ideas would be great....Thanks in advance for your replies....
