I put this in the welding forum because I would be using the sander(s) - for prep and cleanup work on steel welding projects.
I'm slowly outfitting my shop to get some "real" work done. The goal is to (hopefully) - have a well outfitted shop I can use to maybe support a small business or retirement type business. I've been building up my equipment roster , got a Miller 350P, a Stronghand welding table, a good sized blasting cabinet, 7.5HP compressor , just bought a mag drill, would like to get a CNC plasma table - etc.
At the moment any sanding I've had to do - I've done with a 4 1/2 grinder with a sanding disc attached.
There seems to be a huge range of options out there for sanders - from combined disc and belt sanders , to large 15" or 20" diameter disc sanders and 4 to 6" wide belt sanders.
For doing steel prep and cleanup work - which one is the better option? Does it mattter - is it just a personal preference thing?
