Just picked this up at the local Harbor Freight for $49. 4.5" backing plate for $4.99. Couldn't be happier! Some like the light weight machines, I don't. They tend to hop and skip more and that means more tension on the hands and wrists. This machine is well balanced and easy to maneuver without having to hold on so tightly. :worship2: Chicago 19 Amp 7" Electronic Polisher w/ LCD Display 1000-3500RPM Item#66615
