Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this 73 piece Rockwell Sonicrafter to do some ceramic tile work and to sand paint off a stained wood door that had been painted by accident on one side some years back. It made the tile work a breeze, but the door had many grooves and carved surfaces. Having earlier read to let the tool work at its speed, using the proper motor speeds, I made a point of not man-handling or using much pressure while running the Sonicrafter.
Several contractors had told me the effort to remove that paint, to restore the original stained appearance, would cost more than replacing this old and very expensive door. It took me several hours over a two day period using the Sonicrafter, but the tool cleaned the paint from the door perfectly. What little was left in deep grooves was easily removed with a bare minimum of chemical stripper and a few pointed tools. Overall, the Sonicrafter did a great job and left a smooth clean surface for the new stain and sealer. I know of no other tool that could have done this job so easily, and a chemical stripper would have required removing the door from the frame and working with a huge gooey mess that would still have been very difficult to remove.
Did the Rockwell Sonicrafter get put away then? Not for long! One evening a few days later I went to work on a six foot high by four foot wide wooden cabinet - that had been in use in my garage for some twenty-five years. The cabinet had a few mistakes that needed correcting to give it a more professional look - and it had the usual grime accumulated in a garage at home. The Sonicrafter was used to even cuts on board edges, and to sand the entire cabinet with its shelves intact. After a few hours this unpainted cabinet looked as if it had just been built, and better than when my father had built it twenty-five years ago. A light stain and sealer made it look great after the sanding - using the same sanding paper that was still not worn out from use on the door. Only now, the cabinet looks like furniture grade.
I didn't use the dust collection attachment but should have. The material removed comes off in a very fine powder that will get into your nose and eyes if not careful. After I had used the general purpose blade to even the few "mistakes" in the cabinet, I had re-installed the sanding pad. After about two hours use the sanding action slowed more or less abruptly. The sand paper was still good, but I noticed the pad was loose. I tightened it better that time and it didn't loosen again. So, you need to tighten the tool attachments fairly strongly. Using the highest speed, to prevent excessive motor heat while sanding, the gear head became warm but not excessively to the touch. Three hours was all it took to recut the wood where needed on that cabinet, and to fully sand it smooth and clean.
The next day, I found myself in need of some small plastic shims for another small job I was doing on my Kubota RTV 900. I thought to use the Sonicrafter with its general purpose blade, and within only minutes I had precisely cut the four small plastic shims I needed. That job couldn't have been made any simpler, and it let me know the Sonicrafter will find a lot of use around my home - even in use on my vehicles. I highly recommend this tool for precise and detailed work. It has already well paid for itself and it's ready for much more action.
