Well actually now I don't know if i should buy http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=92623
30 bucks

or

http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=90820
50 bucks

the one thats 50 bucks gives me an LCD readout and constant speed under pressure. BUT its speeds are from 1000-3000RPM's. I'm afraid that I will need to go lower.

on the other hand the 30 buck one doesn't have LCD readout so its not as accurate and does not keep a constant speed under pressure which I guess could be used to my advantage to feather the rotary. But this one goes from 300-2000 I know I won't need anything above 2000 but having it go as low as 300 is nice.

I've heard that 1200RPM is the optimal speed for swirl remover. Is their any need to add pressure with a rotary or do I just let the weight of the machine do the work?
