I really like this tool. It works very well for the purpose for which I bought it- working in tight places. I would further comment on a review I read BEFORE buying this tool. IT DOES REQUIRE A HIGH VOLUME OF AIR!! A "kiddie compressor" will not do! I have a 6 Hp/ 33 gallon compressor and it works OK for this tool. A larger system would be better. So, if you wish to use this tool with a small volume compressor, you may be dissapointed in the performance of this tool.

In the Canadian Woodworking magazine (Aug/Sep 08) it states this sander "is one of the few air sanders that can be operated on a portable air compressor" this is NOT true. This sander works less than one minute with a portable air compressor. I discovered later in the Woodcraft October Catalog that they note the sander requires a minimum of a 60 gallon capacity compressor or equiivalent to operate. I am sorry I bought this sander.

I'm a woodturner, and use this sander a lot for finishing bowls and other turned vessels. It's great for removing concentric scratches and tool marks that can happen when turning wood on a lathe. Mine has worked flawlessly in a busy shop for about four years so far. I keep it lubricated as described in the documentation and have had no problems with it at all. Yes, it requires a real compressor. The gallon and horsepower numbers mean nothing. If your compressor can't produce about 8 cfm of air at the required psi, expect it to run a lot. Previous reviews talking about "6 hp" compressors are going by the "peak" horsepower ratings, and not the actual running horsepower. If you're plugging your compressor into a 110v outlet, it's probably not gonna be able to keep up with this sander. (I know this because I used my Grex sander with a "6 hp" buzz bomb compressor for over a year before I got a compressor running a real 5 hp motor on a 40 amp 220v circuit.) If you've got a real compressor, this is a great tool.
