Looking for a machine to add to arsenal for running 1-3 inch pads. Not really wanting to go cordless, and dont want to deal with pad stall on a free spinning machine.

Anyone ever use flex pe8?

The Mini Spinny as I call it. Small, light, powerful and very capable. It’s a fantastic tool. Only gripe was I’m not super fond of that trigger style but I have gotten used to it. Otherwise I have no issues with it……had it maybe 4 years now.

I have so many different ones. I like the smaller LC Force hybrid and also the B&S urotech pads.

I have one. I wouldn't buy it again. The rpms are too high on it (Flex said they had to keep them that high to cool the insides with the internal fan.). The only speed I ever use is the lowest one.

I would just get the full size (which is close to the same weight) and buy a set of small backing plates.
 
Maybe try the Griots GR3 mini rotary?

I have not. Haven’t found the need or the courage to pick up a rotary.
