| | | you can use the same edge pads on the rotary...just get the edge adapter for a rotarty...my 6 inch da pads and wave pads work just as well on the rotary as they do on my porter cable...

| | | Hey congrats on the Metabo purchase, you'll enjoy it. The first time you use it you will notice the difference...well that is if you have used other rotary's. I love how the Metabo feels in my hands, so confortable...no pressure points...oh and no vibration YYYYAAAAAAYYYYY!!!
Okay the pads, I agree with orngez. Just get your self the addaptor for the rotary and your set. I got some Lake Country pads and I just purchased the rotary backing plate (the appropriate size too) and I use them on the rotary too. I'm going to try and get a buch of the old style of Lake Country pads before they are gone...cant have enough pads. |

I think if I am ever in Calgary I should hook up with you. Congrats on your Cyclo! Same holds true in Detoit area for you.Maybe I can show you some virtual reality in the automotive sector. I am looking forward to using it. So let me get this straight, a adapter and an a backing plate for the non Edge pads? Maybe I should consider some LC pads also? I appreciate you and Orngez alot!
