I never liked gear driven polishers.
I had never been a fan of gear driven polishers. They tired me out and I felt they wrestled with me the entire time I used them.
All that changed when I used my Rupes Mille for the first time!!
We used them on a Douglas VC-9C used as Air Force One and a WWII B-17 bomber we polished up.
Rather than fighting me for control, as I felt other machines had, the Mille joined me as an ally. It has a very robust but very manageable action to it. The throw is a short one but the correction ability is excellent. It is a swirl eating monster!!

I was hoping he would share some of those Mother's Cookies he was eating in one of his videos! They looked good.
Joe, we should grab a breakfast burrito some day!

Great video Joe! Your definitely not helping my sickness either! HAHAHA
Re: I never liked gear driven polishers.
Joe how does it compare to the Makita 5000C? I own 2 Makita 5000’s and find it very powerful in gear driven mode but takes the right combination of technique and pad/product to smooth it out.
