We are looking for a large orbital sander – maybe 10″ or so? Can anyone recommend a manuf/model?hummm I’ve never had a use for one… just curious what you were planning on doing with it? I do have a 12″ GEM sander….
It would be used for solid surface and wood countertops. Is your 12″ gem sander considered an orbital sander? http://www.gem-industries.com/ss.php is this the same thing?
Our 11 1/4″ Gem is worth its weight in gold. Great time saver. That looks like it, but the pad looks different from what we are used to.
Sur-Care sells a ginormous multi pad sander but my guys never liked it. A lot of money down the drain with that purchase.
speaking of the gem sander, Im looking for a good and fair priced resource for 3m discs. After shopping around Im seeing a significant price diff and they will only ship UPS. Who would pay 39.00$ to ship 25 sheets of sand paper?
I know…wha wha wha
Im hopeful there is a better way. I love the “Gem”
David,
We purchase all 5″ disc sand paper from Louis and Company. A product called Wurth Emerald clean sanding discs. Approx $15 for a box of 50 pcs. We use it mainly on wood material.
Hope that helps.
David,
Try “R. S. Hughes”. They have a warehouse located in Seattle. I can’t imagine that UPS charges could be too much.http://www.rshughes.com/p/3M-268L-H…111_54568/
