Highlights
Quality
The wheel sander works very well and the wire brush attachment was all i hoped for.
Was easy to use and did a great job.

It works great on larger flatter areas but not so well into small recesses to get into tight areas i use a similar but much smaller wire wheel in a 14 inch die grinder

Its pretty much useless on tight grained woods like mahogany or poplar but gives a great old and weatherbeaten look to more open grain woods like oak or ash
