    Congrats on the new product guys!

    It's ideal to have the new 6" plate for 6.5" pads, but why not 3.5" plate for 4" pads?

    For ages everyone is saying that pad needs to be bigger then the plate (in order to prevent the plate hitting paint and causing the damage) ... all of the sudden same size plate/pad combo is ok?!

    Am I missing something here?!?

    Very nice video and product. Did Flex cooperate with the development of the product?

    Is there a 5 inch plate for the Flex 3401 so I can use 5.5 inch pads, or no?

    With the design on the machine being as long as it is, we decided to stop at 4", otherwise there is a chance it may be to small to work.

    They liked the prototypes and thought it was a good idea.

    no, but we could always look into adding it if there was a demand.

    Eric thank you for keeping us all informed, and I think that video will really help when everyone gets their hands on these.

    Then it would make a lot sense to me to start making 4.5" pads for the 4" plate.

    This is another great idea to make 5" plate for existing LC 5.5" pads!
