John,

The best solution to short life Dremels is diamond cutters of various
design.  They cut carbon like butter and any one of them will last the life
of a building project (5 years and 7000 hours on my scratch built IV-P)  if
not abused.

They are available from Engis Corporation:  Phone 708-808-9400.

Regarding sanders, Black and Decker makes a vacuum evacuated 5 inch sander
that has lasted through the completion of the aforementioned IV-P and most
of the way through the finishing of a second set of IV-P wings.  And
recently I purchased a 10 inch vacuum evacuated sander manufactured by
Porter Cable.  It is designed for use in dry wall applications.  It does a
very good job of taking the imperfections out of slurried wings.  I bought
it from a local building materials wholesaler.

So far as pneumatic sanders are concerned, you might try your local
automotive paint supply wholesaler.  I bought 4 and 8 inch DA sanders and an
air file from the one here in Birmingham.

Good luck with the Legacy.  I have one scheduled for delivery the end of
May.

Merrill Smith.
