Abrasives Package

[Runhard]

Anybody selling abrasives package in T-Loc systainer for the RO90? I'm also still trying to decide on some new sanders, either RO125 and ETS125 or RO150 and ETS150/3 or a 125/150 combo. I would like to get an abrasives package for which ever ones I decide to buy, hopefully this week! Granat would probably work best or an assortment of different types. I wish the package had pads, protector sets, and even polishing supplies.

If you feel strongly about getting it all in one Systainer you're going to want to make up a custom insert form a Systainer.  I've used 1/4" mdf to make a quick and dirty inserts for my 125mm and rectangle abrasives and sanding other accessories.

Well I assume some of the pads and other accessories could fit into the sander's systainer, but that is what I'm wanting to do. I've tried going to Tom's site but I keep getting an error message "cannot open page because the server cannot be found.

Thanks. I hope I can find a good assortment because I do not want to buy 50 or 100 sheets of every grit I need as a hobbyist/DIY

I bought a assortment for my  ETS125 and  DTS400 from Tom Bellemare.

HOLLY COW was their a lot of paper!    Great deal and IMO a must have for any sander you buy.

I really need to buy two more systainers for all the paper that comes with the assortments.

I may have to borrow your idea Brice.

I borrowed it from Seth, so thanks to him for the idea. [thumbs up]

For what it's worth, I feel the Festool abrasives Systainer for the 90 is a bit "useless". The orientation of the paper means you only get to a handful of different ones until you stack them on top of each other - not ideal.

The 90 is a shocker because you need round and triangular for everything from coarse to very fine to take advantage of it flexibility ... going the Festool route you will need two abrasive Systainers to have enough compartments!

I purchased a systainer of disks for my RO 90 and my EST 150 from Tom Bellemare and I think I'll have enough sanding supplies for the next ten years [wink]

Yep -- that's what I did -- one for the delta paper and the other for the round.  So far it works out well, but a few of the grits have to be stacked to get them all in there...
