5.0 out of 5 stars Game-Changer for My Woodworking Projects - DEWALT Rotary Sander Delivers!
As someone who enjoys crafting wooden flags, finding the right tools can make all the difference between a project being a chore or a joy. Enter the DEWALT Rotary Sander (DWE6401DS). This tool has been an absolute game-changer for my work.The variable speed settings are a standout feature, allowing me to adjust the sander's intensity based on the task at hand. Whether it's heavy-duty sanding or fine finishing touches, this sander has me covered. The dust shroud is another boon, significantly reducing cleanup time and keeping my workspace clean, which is essential for anyone who values their workshop's tidiness.Its ergonomic design deserves praise too. It's incredibly user-friendly and makes sanding less of a strain on the hands, allowing for longer work sessions without discomfort. The 5-inch size is perfect for the intricate work of flag making, providing enough surface area for efficient sanding while still allowing for precision.
5.0 out of 5 stars Absolute Beast of a Sander
The media could not be loaded. This sander is a great compliment to any DA sander (if you’re looking to perfect it) and is a game changer for my sanding game. This thing could carve wood if you’re into that sort of thing. I can sand rough or prefinished surfaces in a 10th of the time it takes with the DA (see video). Start and end with long passes trailing nose down. Be careful and get a hang of the pull of it, if you make the wrong move you can easily wreck sandpaper, a foam backer pad (a must with this IMO). Never pull the sander off the end of a board, always use a pushing motion nose down and control the follow through.If you do any sanding, and especially if you’re looking to refinish old wood, buy this right now. I’ll buy another when it dies if there isn’t an upgraded version available by then.
5.0 out of 5 stars Game changer!
Wish I would have pulled the trigger on this purchase years ago.I finally got fed up with belt sanders. Tired of having to watch if the belt is drifting. Tired of replacing perfectly good belts, other than the glue strip/tape came loose. Tired in general, because a belt sander is tiring.I knew that I would be removing a lot of surface wood, and was trying to think outside the box (grinders/mods, polishers, multitools...). After looking at the options, just couldn't pass up this versatile inexpensive tool from a reliable manufacturer.A cordless version wasn't available when I made my purchase, which is good. Something like this when sanding with coarse grit will use a bit of power.With 40 grit, it is way easier to control than a belt sander. Haven't used fine grit yet, but with the adjustable speed dial (If you're wondering, the speed dial is round and built into the trigger - very convenient), the speed can go much lower and much faster than I'll ever need. If you need to go slower than this, then you might as well use a hand pad. If you need to go faster, then you might want to use a grinder.This tool fell into a sweet spot between price and functionality. Hindsight being 20-20, I feel very satisfied with this purchase. Also, looks like it would be easy to convert to 7" discs, if the need arises. The 5" discs cost about $1/each, which is much less expensive than crappy belts. The range of capability appears huge within this $80 tool. No more belt sanding for me, plus I'll be able to do a lot of fine work with it too.Prior to this purchase, I dreaded sanding. Now, I'm almost looking forward it. Even better, I'm not avoiding sanding. If you're reading this review - go buy it - you'll like it.I'm not affiliated with Dewalt. I've just been so impressed with some the Dewalt tool time saving ergonomics, that I use Dewalt as my standard. For cordless, I pretty much only use Dewalt (So that I don't have to buy more batteries). My first Dewalt tool was a marked down returned portable table saw, quite a few years ago; best tool purchase ever, by far. This Dewalt sander has potential to become my second favorite tool purchase, and for a lot less money.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great sander
All i can say is WoW. Works great . You gotta be careful because it will take off tons of stock if you are not.
5.0 out of 5 stars A solid tool
This DEWALT sander is a real workhorse. It's got plenty of power to tackle tough jobs, and the variable speed control is a lifesaver. I especially appreciate the dust shroud – it keeps things much cleaner than other sanders I've used. The 5-inch pad size is perfect for most projects. Overall, a solid tool that's built to last.
4.0 out of 5 stars Oh ok... I get it now.
Oh ok... I get it now. I bought this in addition to my belt sander, Makita random orbital sander, and my palm sander. This is a great addition and now does about 60% of all my sanding duties in my shop. When you first use it, don't panic. this thing is a little different. my initial reaction to this was... "WTH, this is just a drill with a spinning pad at the end." So I was trying to go slow speed with it using the trigger. The tool got hot quick. So this is not the way this tool is intended to be used. So I got a good grip and went full speed on the trigger and set it down on my end grain cutting board that I was making. Wow, once the tool gets in it's rhythm it really sings. It does have a slight orbital notion to it. This tool is designed to go at full speed all the time. What the tool does is not dependent on trigger adjustment (speed). It is completely dependent on the grit. If you have this tool you should buy a big pack of 80, 120, & 220 paper (this is 8 hole). The 80 will skin a grizzly bear! quick to even out your work piece. 120 will smooth things out. and 220 puts on a high polish. 220 got my end grain cutting board just like glass in about 30 seconds. It was incredible. Does the same thing as my random orbital sander (which takes the same paper),.. but it does it much more quickly and efficiently. I will still use my Makita random orbital sander for more detailed and slow areas. It is a great tool. but missing a star for not including a dust bag.
Great tool and price
This tool worked great to quickly remove old finishes on wooden decks and a shed to be restored. It is less aggressive than an angle grinder with a sanding disc and get better control and finish. Some reviewers complain about the vacuum attachment not working well etc but I am well aware of the limitations that attachment would provide realistically. I use this tool outside and don’t require it. This tool works.
Herramienta con mucha potencia
Antes de comprarla tenía mis dudas de cómo fuincona y para qué trabajos se tenía que utilizar, pero por desafortuna, solamente encontré 2 videos sobre la maquina y no resolvieron mis dudas, así que dejaré mi experiencia. Es una muy buena herramienta, pero para lo que está hecha, yo la he usado solo para madera, pero para lijar como tal no, funciona para desbastar de forma muy fuerte la madera, tipo cortezas, dar cantos a maderas fuertes, pero para lijar no, quita mucha madera y los lijadoros no son parejos, tampoco puedes usar para lijar toda la lija, solamente los extremos de la lija, justo por la potencia. Entonces, si, es una excelente herramienta para los trabajos para los que está hecha la herramienta, en resumen, es como un taladro adecuado para ponerle una lija, pero con mas control que un taladro, pero básicamente es eso.
Potente para desbastar
Una lijadora que ayuda bastante para remover casi cualquier cosa, solo es entender su movimiento y no forzarla (como a ninguna herramienta) solo es controlarla sin forzarla y sola hace el trabajo, no es una lijadora para terminado es más para desbaste o remover material con la lija adecuada, para terminados hay otro tipo de lijadoras así que combinando está con otro tipo de lijadoras es un equipo perfecto, buen precio, buen diseño, lijera (y si la sabes entender pues trabaja casi sola. Recomendada.
Combines power of belt sander with control of random orbit - very useful.
I wanted to sand an entire room of OSB covered walls, with lots of material to remove (it has roller markings that print quite deep). Belt sander could ruin the looks by leaving marks, and random orbit did not remove material fast enough. This device solved the problem and is now my go-to option when fast progress needs to be made.A few things to be aware:1. It produces a lot of dust and leaves a lot of it on the surface even with vacuum connected.2. The vacuum connection is too flexible, so if your hose has heavy adaptors, it will bend the dust hood on the tool. In my case, did not bend enough to touch the spinning disc so was not a big problem.3. Takes some effort to control on max speed. So while it does save you time, you will be pretty worn out if you use it for a long time.
Lots of power.
This is not a random orbital sander but strictly orbital and works great for removing lots of material fast, not fine finish work. In my case I used it to completely strip 3 coats of paint from steel panels for repainting and it worked very well with plenty of power to lay right into it. I did't use the dust collector attachment so I can't comment on how it works. Recommend.
