Fine Fein vac Bosch Sander Combo... (w/pics)

[David F. Eisan]

Hello everyone,

I have wanted a better sander than my PC333 ROS for a while now and finally settled on the Bosch 1250 DEVS 6" Random Orbital Sander. I tried connecting it to my Ridgid shop vac, but the combo was a screamer. I was going to try to find a way to quite it, but when I was able to get a great deal on a Fein Turbo II with the auto on feature, I grabbed it.

Here is a pic of the combo,

will let you know how it works out in the next few weeks as I have many many doors to sand...

Thanks for looking,

David.

Every neighbourhood has one, in mine, I'm him.

Yup, Turbo II does the job better than anything else in its league. As I mentioned, my Festool Rotex 150 hooks up without any serious adapters and the total soundlevel is survivable. Hook the Turbo up to the 557 plate joiner, and the whole package screams like a frickin' Banshee. It has become a siren.

One day I'd like to try that particular Bosch sander.
