New polishers?

[ShaneB]

Saw this today. I`m intrigued and can`t wait to see the specs. About time the flex has some direct competition! And it spins clockwise too it seems!

Yeah thinking these may be Mikes mystery Polishers C`s the Makita Po5000c forced

It actually spins the right way? I just bought a MKII. Now I have to have a forced rotation Rupes! It`s going to be expensive...ouch.

ARupes rotary? Can`t imagine how smooth that bad boy must be...

I have Nano, Mini, Duetto, 15Mk2 and 21Mk2 and Flexi Pe 14-2. Lol i think i want that Rupes rotary, even though i dont use rotary much at all, maybe for jewelling. Im sure that forced da will be better than Flex, but im not interested. 15-21 mk2 will cut faster and stalling is not a problem at all.

I`m curious about the rotary too! I can`t imagine it being any smoother than my PE-14 and it looks like it may be larger as well. Maybe someone can post a pic side by side but I love my PE-14.

So long throw cuts better blah blah blah, then why do they need a forced rotation DA? Why would they copy FLEX instead of FLEX getting into the long throw? Weird

Maybe to appeal to the band camp that can`t grasp the use of the long throw?

My thought as well. Crazy to me how many people think long throws are only good for light work.

There will always be a need for forced rotation though. Unfortunately I feel like Rupes dropped the ball with this if the specs I`ve heard are true. I`ve heard it`s got an orbit a little over 5mm, which is small compared to the already proven flex 3401. Curious to know if or why this new forced rotation machine will be superior to the flex at all

can someone enlighten me on what difference the spinning makes?

does a circular object not rotate the same speed clockwise as it does counterclockwise?

I can`t help but think of that episode of the Simpsons now about toilet flushing.
