 "Much better than expected" 2009-10-16
By Harley Dixon (Henrietta, NY)
I had a heavy, old, half sheet Craftsman orbital sander that has served me very well over the years...it was hard to beat the job it was able to do, mainly because of it's weight, and the size of the sanding sheet it used. So when the gears in it finally gave up and it was unrepairable, I had to search for another to finish sanding the airplane I was building.



I searched the local stores for a large orbital sander but was unable to find any for less than $300. So, I tried a couple of smaller, lighter, brand name orbital sanders that I bought from the local Big Box stores, but they couldn't handle the size of the job...one of them broke the paper hold down mechanism, both of them too small, too light and too slow.



After a search online, I came across this Makita unit, and seeing the reviews on it on several other websites, and the price here on Amazon, I figured I'd give it a try.



What a difference! It did the job beautifully...fast, smooth and accurate. I have to admit that I did not use the filter or the vacuum cleaner attachment for a couple of reasons...in sanding a large object like the fuselage and wing strakes of my plane, the vacuum hose would get in the way, or the filter would fill up every five minutes with the primer and fiberglass dust I was removing. So, I sanded it outside and let the wind carry the dust away (sorry, neighbors ).



It surpassed my expectations, as I was able to finish my fuselage in less than three hours. Both the coarse and finish sanding! I had figured it was going to take me eight to ten hours, so I was way ahead.



Excellent product...the third Makita tool in my considerable collection of power tools (the other two Makitas are a saw and a drill)...and all three of them surpassed my expectations. Don't think I'll look at any other brand first for any future tools...or anywhere else but Amazon.com for the best prices!

 "Makita 1/2 sheet sander BO4900V" 2009-04-04
By HTB (Ohio)
I bought this sander off of EBAY and it is very very smooth. It is as smooth as a Porter Cable 505 sander. The punch plate you can get from makita is not worth the price and the holes it makes are to small. The sand paper is not to be found from Makita. As far as the dust port being to small for most hose connections all you need is the FEIN step adpt # 921072K13 about $7-9 bucks depending where you get it from. The multi speed is great. No need to buy the Festool sander it is not any better then this Makita sander and it cost much more. The Bosch 1/2 sheet sander is good but I did feel some vibration while using it so I sold it to get the this Makita, Best multi speed sander I have used.The Porter Cable 505 sander which I do own is just as good but no multi speed or dust collection and made in Mexico now. The Makita is made in Japan.

 "Good sander, almost great" 2008-02-21
By Matthew Murphy (Lafayette, Colorado)
I have been using the Metabo 1/2 sheet sander for years, and have a couple of them. I have always been very satisfied with them, but one day somebody dropped one off a ladder and offer to replace it. I had trouble finding the Metabo at a reasonable price, so I bought the new Makita. It is about as good as the Metabo in every regard except for the dust collection. Not having a punch plate does not bother me (I usually use a nail set,) but the dust port in the back is maybe a 1" pipe, and does not fit any standard dust collection vacuums (Fein, Porter Cable, Festool.) I've been told that I need to buy a special hose to tote around in order to attach to a vacuum, or maybe cob an adapter together out of vacuum parts. The reason I did not buy the Bosch (another good sander) was because I would have to buy an adaptor to make the rectangular exhaust round and able to hook up to dust collection. I figured that would get lost once or twice a year. Makita repeatedly says how easy it is to hook up to dust collection, but I fail to see that. The Metabo is expensive, but no adaptors are needed.

 "Don't buy this product." 2006-08-01
By M. K. Witter (California)
I have owned and used Craftsman and Milwaukee 1/2 sheet finishing sanders and liked them both. I bought the Makita and sent it back as being unacceptable for the following reasons:

1) In order to have the dust collector function, special Makita sand paper must be used or a special hole punching machine must be purchased in order to make the special sand paper required. 2) If standard paper is used, not only does the dust collector not work, but the many dust collecting holes in the pad do not support the paper, resulting in inefficient use of the paper.

 "The best of the best sanders & Festool paper fits it too" 2005-10-28
By Woodsmithy (Green Bay, WI USA)
I have used the Makita Model 9046 1/2 sheet sander for 4 years. It is almost identical to this model.



I had the opportunity to do a hands on evaluation of 1/2 sheet sanders. I liked the ruggedness Porter-Cable, the economy of the Milwaukee, and the feel of the Bosch, but the Makita is in a class of it's own.



At first it seemed a little heavy, but after I got use to it and let it work, it did a fantastic job. This 1/2 sheet sander oscillates much more than the others and does the job in half the time. It leaves the surface dead flat and is very kind to veneer.



It has vacuum pich-up holes in the paper/sander like a random orbital sander. If you hook it up to a vac the dust is minimal ( This may require a little tape around the outlet to fit your hose). The punch plate does not come with the sander. So unless you can find the special pre-punched paper, you need to order the plate from a Makita rep or make one.



I do not recommend starting with 80 grit paper. This sander can be very aggressive, so start with the finest grit that will do job.



Added January 2009

The bad news is that I recently ran out of the pre-punched Makita sandpaper and my local shop stop carrying it. Sometimes when I'm working on a small project, it's really nice to have the pre-punch hook & loop paper for fast/easy grit changes. The good news is that I did some investigating and discovered that the Festool ½ sheet hook & loop is interchangeable with the Makita. Of course the Festool paper is no bargain but it works great on my Makita sander and the dust control is awesome.



Eight years of intermittent use and it still runs great.

By Aureliano B (Miami, FL USA)
Invaluable for the advanced hobbyist, or professional wood carver/worker. Well balanced tool with quick and easy controls and variable speeds for power selection. Very rugged -- I use it as a professional artist and have purchased an second one to share with an assistant. Pricey, but worth every dime.
