Spot the (deliberate?) mistake

Yeah, I agree. Air polisher might be safe in a wet condition, especially if you are going to use much water in this video. We took care not to wet the machine's motor part. (Although this machine said to be waterproof)
Indeed he does, he's still a f****it.
Did you imagine that I hadn't seen that?
illustrate two different motions.
It was actually difficult to pick the mistakes or to prioritise them. As you say the diagram is impossible, if it's just taken as oscillating backwads and forwards as I suspect it was intended to be, it's still wrong that's not the motion of an orbital sander which is, as the name suggests, orbital and the motion of any point on the surface of the sanding sheet moves in an orbit (epicycle and deferent) like this:

there's mixing electricity and water in a rather unsafe manner and the fact that he doesn't seem to have noticed that the orbital sander is one of those with a vaccuum extract that uses the cooling fan on the motor to suck air through holes in the sanding sheet. Fortunately for him the sheet he is using doesn't have holes but if it developed one I suspect the end result would be "crispy Italian". I'm sure that there are many other mistakes in that very short video clip.
