Strip: Sanders

Looking ahead to the day I get to start sanding. I have a 5” random orbital sander but it is pneumatic. I use it on metal quite a bit. I wonder if I can use it on the boat? No dust collection is the first thing I think of. It can be adjusted for speed.

I just had a quick look at sanders at Home Depot and it looks like both the Milwaukee and DeWalt are about $110 bucks. What brands do you guys like?
