Oh yes, I know. I use the backing plates and pads / fast cut+, Extra fine & Ultrafina SE.

Its just a pain to have to wait over a week for the stuff to arrive when I get it next day with AG

Ya Dana gave me the heads up on that bp. I have it aswell for my 6.5 pads but have since moved to 5.5.

FWIW, the power plug on that rotary in the original post suggests it is for US-spec power, it's a standard NEMA 1-15.

the bp number is 09553

I have an old Milwaukee and they both seem to have a similar design. They both have a similar weight too.

It even has the classis Milwaukee looking rubber bumper on top, makes me wonder if Milwaukee doesn't make it for 3M.
