Thinking about a rotary

[OI812]

Hi everyone,
I have a PC already, and am thinking about buying a rotary. My question is this--a lot of you seem to like the Makita rotary, and some seem to like the DeWalt. I am a huge fan of Milwaukee tools. I own a lot of Milwaukee tools and have had great luck with them. What is your opionion on the Milwaukee rotary? I`m not ruling out any of the others, but maybe there are some pros and cons I should be thinking about.

Can`t comment on the Milwaukee but I HIGHLY encourage you to get a rotary:bigups I just got a Dewalt on Monday and can`t wait till I get in my piece of scrap metal to practice with. I`m sure it`s going to blow my socks off :D

I would love to have a rotary in my arsenol as well, but I am scared to get started. Is there any good way to get started without having somebody show you the ropes?

The Milwaukee rotary buffer is a great buffer.............. but it is a bit heavy like the DeWalt. Personally, I like the added weight, but some prefer a lighter buffer like the Makita.

So basically the Milwaukee is just as good as all the others and with no disadvantages that you can tell.

Other than the weight..................... no disadvantages.

0I812,
I use the Milwaukee. I have a Dewalt but use the Milwaukee almost always. I like it because it is shorter in length that the Dewalt and it has a really nice curved butt end on the handle. Great for easily holding the weight of the tool upright and menuevering back and forth. It also has a nice variable speed trigger along with the speed dial. ie, you can be on a high speed and release the trigger a bit to slow it down without having to mess with the speed dial. Also has a easy trigger lock to save those forearm muscles.
