When I first started this project we had a nice little palm sander. We have a table saw that needs a higher voltage of power and therefore we have one outlet that has 220volts. I did not know this when I started this project months ago and picked up an extension cord (which happened to be plugged into this outlet) and plugged the sander into. As I am sanding, the plastic pieces that hold the sand paper in breaks off! I was thinking, "What the heck, my husband uses this all the time why does it have to break for me?" I then found out that it had WAY too much power and vibrated those plastic pieces right off! So, since the other one was broken, I found this old looking sander and started using it. It worked for about five minutes and then started SMOKING. I have now borrowed another palm sander and and still working on finishing sanding. Most of our stuff is packed and ready to move and we are planning on leaving this week! We will see what happens. I am very sick today and will not get anything done so hopefully I can get better soon and be productive.
