31 Re: ? on belt sanders

I have a Byobi BE321 belt sander with sanding frame. I find that I use the
variable speeds very often. I also use it as a bench sander by simply
flipping it over on my bench. As to durability, I used it to sand a yellow
pine floor 14 hours a day for 2 days and it runs as well now as it did new.

I question whether either the AEG or the Bosch would give me better service.
Also, I think both the Bosch and the AEG need a jig (which costs extra) to
operate as a bench sander.
