I have burn my way through several beltsander , and actually this be the second Makita belt sander I have own . this sander be a workhorse ... you can use it all day , and it be still ready for more ! it be one of the quietest sander I have own -lrb- although none of they can truely be call `` qiuet '' -rrb- . but , my favorite feature of this sander be its ability to lay flat when it be turn upside down -lrb- this way it can be use as a temporary stationary sander -rrb- .
