Hey everyone,
I just bought a PC 3" X 21" PC VS Belt Sander. I am not very happy with it. I am used to using a Montgomery Ward Power Craft model that is at least 35 years old. I killed it this afternoon. I really liked it and it served my father then me very well. I had to finish a remodeling project so I went to the Orange Borge and bought the PC. ($189.00) Right out of the box it did not track right, I kept having to adjust it every minute or so. It also left about an inch strip of belt in the middle of the belt untouched. It also tips sideways easily and gouges the work. I guess I thought tools like these would be better after 35 year. I just want to check with everyone to see if I got a lemon and the PC is really good, or is there a better one ( better balance and tracking would be great) like the Bosch or Dewalt. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks
