      Let us know how that works out for you. I think for occassional use, the cheaper sanders should do fine, but may have a poorer balance point, which would work you more, and probably lower quality parts, which if used a lot might wear out much faster. Thanks, Guy

    I'm in the UK and this looks very similar to the Arebos drywall sander, folk in the UK may find that useful​. I'm wondering what the difference between having the motor down the handle or at the head would make.

    • @ThatKiltedGuyDIY
      @ThatKiltedGuyDIY  6 років тому

      The difference would be balance. I would NOT want the motor up higher, as it would feel much heavier and be harder to maneuver, but otherwise they would both work.

    Hey nice video thanks. I did notice some dust coming down in the video but hardly any at all. I now work as a nurse and health adviser and would tell you to ware a mask all the time you are sanding dry wall. That dust will clog your lungs fast and in a very bad way. Even the little dust that thing leaves is still too much for your lungs. But I know the thinking, I am a man and can take it, I think that way also but now still use masks and anything else to help keep healthy. I mean health is the most important item we all have and what good is long life if you are not healthy?

    • @ThatKiltedGuyDIY
      @ThatKiltedGuyDIY  5 років тому +1

      Mark, I totally agree. But I actually do wear a mask when there’s much dust at all. In the earlier days we never did and I will probably pay for it one day. I try to take care of my health better now that I’m getting older. I will be 58 in a couple of months and my body is definitely creaking and groaning more, LOL
      But I can’t really wear one in videos, or I can’t talk. Thanks for the comment.

    I noticed your not using the sandpaper with the holes in it. Does it really matter for max dust collection? What paper are you using and what grits should I buy for basic new drywall taping?

    • @ThatKiltedGuyDIY
      @ThatKiltedGuyDIY  6 років тому

      I do have the sand paper with the holes in it, and I find it is more aggressive than the paper with out, but it doesn’t improve my dust collection at all on my porter cable anyway.
      As for the grits, it depends on what you’re doing. When your rough sanding most guys use 80 to 120 grit, but when you’re fine sanding for a smoother finish, you can even go up to 220 grit.
      Hope that helps. Take care & good luck, Guy

    • @ThatKiltedGuyDIY
      @ThatKiltedGuyDIY  5 років тому

      Yes, it just depends on what you are doing. The faster you want to sand, 🏎 the coarser the grit. I even use 24 grit, but only for popcorn removal.

      Hey, cool. What part of Colorado are you in? Here’s how I look at it, even the cheap $120 Sanders will do a pretty dang good job. But I like how the motor on the porter cable is much lower which makes it feel lighter. The older festool had the motor up higher and I’m not sure would even like that. Now they’ve moved it down lower and I think their features and quality is a step up above porter cable from what I’ve heard. But I won’t know until I get to test one someday. Festool are you listening?

      @ThatKiltedGuyDIY  6 років тому

      When I bought mine they had a matching vacuum, but I don't see one anymore. But looking at yours online I see no reason it shouldn't do fine, so here's some issues I've had. 1- If you are sanding solid mud, like a butt joint, skim coat, etc, you may need a finer grit, or slow the motor down. On full bore, my vac can't keep up. 2- Make sure you have the right filter for the job. Not sure about your vac but some filters clog way to quick for drywall dust. I see yours has a self clean function, so put it at max if adjustable. Otherwise, you could step up to the dust deputy, link below, which takes the load off you vacuum a lot, and then it never loses suction, or you may have to try a different vacuum, like this one rated for drywall dust- bit.ly/2OnEWkJ
      I honestly can stand right below my sander with no eye protection and sand away, except on heavy mud sanding. They key is not losing suction. I first bought the sander and tried it with a little shop vac I had, and it sucked, in a bad way. Clogged up way too fast. If you let it come off the wall or ceiling too much, it will shoot dust all over, so watch that too.
      Here's.a link to the dust deputy if you want to try that - bit.ly/2yxtfEJ
      Let me know if you think of any other questions. I know my old sander works great, so you probably just need to tweak something.

      @@ThatKiltedGuyDIY well, I finished the job, and I just had to embrace the dust shower as I had rented the equipment. Would that device work well for using a vac to clean up the dust that is now all over every surface? Thanks for responding!

    • @ThatKiltedGuyDIY
      @ThatKiltedGuyDIY  6 років тому

      I good vac, setup with the right filter, would definitely help with the dust. Sorry to hear you had such a bad time with it. I've literally sanding with it thousands of times and even wore out the motor once, switches, etc, and it's about 98% dust free. So maybe because it was rented, there might have been a clog in the hose or something because there's no way it should have done that to you. For dust on furniture, I just break out a swiffer, micro fiber and dusting spray etc. You can't get up all the dust with a vacuum, but it will be a start. Dust is my nemesis but it's inevitable sometimes.

    Great video. I can handle the kilt, to each their own. But working barefoot is not a very smart thing to do. I won't even work in runners. Approved work boots are a minimum legally, and just common sense. Sheet of drywall comes down on your toe, your not working for a couple weeks. No thanks.

    • @ThatKiltedGuyDIY
      @ThatKiltedGuyDIY  6 років тому +5

      Hello Brad Callan. I get a lot of comments about the fact that I work barefoot a lot of the time. So here's my explanation.
      First off, I have Peripheral Neuropathy in my feet (since 2008) which is a painful nerve deterioration condition which causes excessive stinging and burning, and wearing shoes ramps that up to unbearable levels.
      I also grew to love the freedom of sandals many years ago, and then moved on to barefooting. I now go barefoot about 80% of the time and have done so since about 2013, so my feet are much tougher than most peoples and in that time, I've NEVER cut my feet seriously, or otherwise injured them in a way that shoes would have prevented. So the need for shoes is something the manufacturers have brainwashed us into believing we need all the time, and that leads to your feet getting soft and weak. I realized this and overcame it and am much happier now. I also NEVER get foot odor, fungus, etc since shoes provide the moist warm environment bacteria need to thrive. My arches are also stronger since I don't support them all day, weakening them, making me need more arch support, (another tactic to sell you more products) (note: the neuropathy started in 2008, so had nothing to do with barefooting)
      But you also have to consider that in these videos, it's a very safe environment. Even on my jobs, I MOSTLY work in finished homes with carpeted floors, laminate floors, etc. And when you barefoot a lot, you learn to be VERY aware of your foot safety and now even if I drop something, my feet move instantly and I never hurt myself. I also am more aware of what I'm stepping on and learn to avoid danger, instead of ignoring it with shoes. If I work on a commercial job, I do wear shoes, but even then, they only require closed toed on the jobs I do, but I don't do new construction anymore either. So on my jobs, no, there's NO requirement to wear shoes, but thanks for the input.
      So thanks for your concerns, but I've read horror stories about shoelaces, steel toed shoes, flip flops, etc, so I'm as safe, or safer than with shoes. Now, there are times I'll wear shoes for safety, and I do wear sandals when walking on gravel, but I mostly go without.
      Also, being barefoot a lot makes me more aware of my feet, and I've NEVER dropped drywall on them, nor hurt them other than a minor scratch in about 6 years of barefooting. But, do what makes you comfortable my friend, as that's what's important.
      Thanks again, and I appreciate your comments.
      Take care, That Kilted Guy
