Specialized tool, but incredible for fiberglass boat work! Amazing for deburring. $$$ but worth it!
Gets into nooks and crannies for rebuilding tabbing and sanding down glass like no other. Stick some 40 grit belts in and this thing devours fiberglass like nothing else. Like -- you can plunge through it! Amazing tool, you can run it flat out for hours and it doesn't care. Also great for metalwork. Hard to create perfectly flat finishes but there are some different techniques including gliding the tip back and forth left and right. Tracking adjustment works very well. Poor torque at low speed but that is to be expected without closed loop speed control. Many material removal rates possible depending on pressure applied (as little as the weight of the tool), grits, and speeds. Fantastic for deburring metal parts. All around -- pricey but worth it. Made several projects this layup season not only easier but frankly possible. I don't know what other tool I could use to get into some of these little spots. A little slower than absolutely top speed seems to be the sweet spot for most tasks between noise, heating, control, and material removal rate. ... show more

The really right tool for some jobs
This thing is really solid and well built. A high-end commercial grade tool bordering on industrial grade. I was surprised at how powerful it is, yet easy to control precisely. Bought it for a specific task (custom bevels on plexiglas to match the openings on a sailboat), and it made the job of custom fitting the glazing a million times easier. Now I reach for it all the time when something needs a little tweak. Solid value for the money, useful more often than I thought it would be. This is a tool that you don't "need," in that, anything you can do with it you could do some other way, and it's not part of a "basic" kit; but it can save you a lot of time and effort sometimes. Makita, a handle that attaches near the forward roller would be helpful, as would an arm attachment for the 3/8 unit that would allow use of 1-1/8 belts. ... show more

Works great
Bought this for replacing stringers on a boat a must have tool. The only thing I had a problem with is the instruction manual is in Japanese.

Clean up those hard-to-reach welds...
I purchased this item to clean up welds in hard-to-grind places. It does that very well, and I use it a lot. It doesn't work that well for flattening wide areas; get a sander with a wider belt if you need to do that. It also goes through belts quickly, so buy an extra box or two (they are cheap, and the coarse ones that I use cut very quickly). I would expect the belts to last a lot longer if you are working mostly with wood or similar materials. This is very much a specialist tool. If you need something to fill this role then it is a great choice. Most people don't. I also have a wider version of this tool (1 3/8") and am very happy with that one too. Wish it came with a hard case, but it doesn't. Also, mine tends to throw off the belt if you use it with the handle at 90-degree angle to the belt (handle angle is fully adjustable). That hasn't caused much of a problem for me, but keep that in mind if this unit is too long to fit in your work area. No other gripes or issues so far. ... show more

Japanese model with no US warranty
I bought this because the price had dropped, not knowing I would receive a Japanese model. It has the same model number, but the box and manual were only in Japanese. I contacted Makita USA and they replied "Unfortunately we are only able to support the warranty for Makita USA products. We do not support warranty for tools/products sold in Japan." If you care about possible warranty support, buyer beware. Luckily, a manual written in English can be found by searching online for "makita filing sander manual pdf". The Japanese version has a two-prong plug (not a double insulated polarized plug as described in the US manual). Since electrical outlets in the US and Japan are compatible for two-prong non-polarized plugs, it works fine when plugged into a standard US outlet. Since this appears to be a high-quality Makita tool, and the price was not overly high, I decided to keep it (in spite of the lack of warranty). Nice features: * Speed control (from "agonizingly slow" to "skin shearingly fast") * 90 degree adjustable (from "pointy stick" to "pew-pew pistol grip") * Dust port (requires a special adapter, but maybe can jury-rig something to make it work) * Long floppy power cord (some kind of shiny Japanese nylon, not sure how durable it will be) ... show more

Great for filing door strikes
As another reviewer noted, this tool is excellent for grinding door strikes. I remodel hotels and recently did a project where I had to swap all of the guest room doors and locks (almost 100 rooms). The old frames were out of wack and almost all of the strikes needed to be ground to some degree so that the doors would latch properly. This tool made very quick work of it, much better than my old way of doing it. It more than paid for itself. The vendor who supplied to locks did the actual lock install, and they commented that this Makita tool was much better than their Harbor Freight version that they use. I think Makita tools are great and I gravitate to them whenever possible, but after purchasing this one I found out that Milwaukee makes one with an optional finger replacement that would allow a 3/4" wide belt. Makita makes optional fingers that would accept either 1/4" or 1/2" belts. If I had it to do over, I would probably opt for the Milwaukee with the 3/4" belt as that would have fit the door strikes better and made the job even faster. However, with that said, the Makita is great and I look forward to using it often on future projects. ... show more

This thing rocks
Was considering some of the cheaper options because this one's kind of pricey, but went with the Makita because it runs at the kind of high FPM that's good for steel. Worth every penny. At full speed, it removes material as well as much bigger, heavier tools, but can be used in places that aren't possible to reach with an angle grinder or stationary sander. Attached are pictures of a part that was cut (badly) with an OA torch. Didn't take too long at all to turn the interior surfaces into something presentable. Not sure how I would have done that without this tool, and I suspect that if I bought one of the el-cheapo ones it would now be in the trash and I would have ended up ordering this one anyways. ... show more

Wonderful tool!
I really love this mini power tool! I had never seen anything like that in stores before, but desperately needed some XS version of a belt sander/orbital sander for very tiny spots (I'm doing some major remodeling in an historical home). I was skeptical at first, as I had a very disappointing experience with a sander for "corners" of another brand. However, Makita never ceases to amaze me and this product was no different. Don't let the size of the belt fool you: with coarse grits it is more powerful compared to bigger sanders with the same grit discs/belts. I'm not a professional, but I've been doing quite a bit of DIY and am comfortable with sanding work -I would recommend anyone who doesn't have much experience to try it with fine or medium grit first, since the coarser belts can dig holes before you even know it. All in all, it's one of my favorite tools, well worth the price and extremely useful for a variety of projects, surfaces etc. ... show more
