Deal Details
The Harbor Freight Parking Lot sale ad this week [harborfreight.com] is one of the best HFT ads I've seen in recent memory. I've been eyeing this surface conditioning tool for some time - almost bought it at $109, but glad I waited. I believe this is the lowest it's ever gone, and I doubt it will go any lower (at least for non-ITC members). Watch one of the YouTube videos on this thing - it's pretty amazing. Personally, I think this price is a steal, esp since it comes with 3 finishing drums that sell for $15 a piece, on their own. That makes the tool only $55 once you factor the value of the included drums.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
  • The BAUERβ„’ 9 Amp Surface Conditioning Tool delivers up to 3700 RPM for removing rust, paint, and conditioning metal surfaces. Built with a front D-handle for maximum comfort and control and lock-on trigger for extended use. Accepts a wide variety of 4 in. x 4 in. sanding drums.
  • Variable speed control delivers 1000-3700 RPM for surface preparation applications
  • High torque 9 Amp motor handles the toughest jobs
  • All metal gearing for long life and durability
  • Six speed control dial to match sanding speed to application
  • Ergonomic inline design reduces fatigue during extended use
  • Accepts a wide variety of sanding drum accessories
  • Drum guard keeps debris away from user
  • Accessories Included: 40-grit clean-and-strip drum, 120-grit stripping drum, 240 grit finishing drum, (2) hex keys

I wanted one until I picked it up, heavy. Will stick with angular grinder with strip discs.

You might be on to something...

It is a big tool, I agree. It's also 9 amps. Just watch a few of the videos; it's amazing what these things can do when it comes to paint stripping.

For metal preparation for welding, this seems like a game changer but the price and cost of consumables make me likely to stick with a flap disc
