Just throwing it out there as I have been on the fence for a year about purchasing a planex. Anyone in earshot of the Hudson valley area of NY that has a planex or the new easy that would be willing to rent to me for a job I have coming up just to see if I can get used to it, both in the actual taping difference as well as the sanding difference. I don't do enough jobs to really warrant purchasing one but I am starting to see more and more value in the dust collection and speed of using one. PM me if you can help out even if its just with some advise from your own use of one of these machines. Thanks and Happy New Year.
