    My stable...

    I swear I had no ambition of collecting machine polishers, it just happened over the last 3 years...

    The Milwaukee 5460 is my latest aquisition and is a real bulldog for compounding.

    The Dewalt 849 is in my opinion the best machine I ever tried, and is balanced perfectly. Feels like she was custom made for my hands.

    PC 7424... Great final light polisher !!!

    The other Porter Cable engine over rotary will be used this Sat/Sun. I have had her for about 2 months, but haven`t used her yet.

    Dang! How come you need 2 of everything? I can understand for tools breaking down, but of the same brand? Whats the new PorterCable do? Take some pics of your van setup!

    jgv...

    Either the Dewalts need a cleaning, or the Milwaukee has been worked enough.

    I am considering getting a Makita, just to round out the bunch, and see why its so popular. I heard all good about that machine.

    JeffBruce... If you ever looking to trade one off maybe we can work a swap?

    The Milwaukee is sooo smooth and powerful.

    The new Porter Cable looked interesting, lightweight, and its a variable speed 1000-1750. I bought her dirt cheap, and will finally give her a test run on a 1997 Red Honda Del Sol then a 2002 Black MB CL 500.

    groebuck... I will try to post a pic for you tonight...

    Makita
    I have one brand new and the used one I use,
    (it was a great great deal)

    Don`t get rid of your Dewalts, they are the best..i got to use one and it was great

    I will let you borrow it for a month or 2 if you just want to see how it is.!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have one with Meguiars backing plate , and I have Edges adapter I need to test ...on the other

    I like the Makita but I dont like the handel I took it off and just use the rotary by holding the metal tip it has little holes under neath where I put my fingers I can control the rotary better then.
