Jeffery is not the only one buying new tools. Bought this for £38 < 10% on old geezers day at B&Q.
My Black and Decker was worn out after about 25 years and the plate was all loose on the mounting, possibly worn holes and may be fixable but no time to look yet. Not very effective as a sander with a loose plate. Anyway decorating in progress and needed something quick and I'm very impressed with this. The attached dust box actually works and grabs a lot of the dust (they say 65% which may be about right). Lets you know when it needs empting as dust starts coming out excessively .
