: Hey Jim,
: Maybe there's a problem with your sander? The single-speed one I mentioned
: doesn't rev up when off the work surface.

: Jim

No problem. It says in the manual something about not to run it without being on a surface. I'll have to look at the manual again to be sure (if I can find it). Also, I think it needs some new O-rings. The dust collection cup won't stay on and the housing that the dust colletion cup is on twists around occasionaly while I'm using it. I can keep the cup on with a piece of paper wraped around to increase the diameter slightly.
