Just bought a Porter Cable :)

I was just about to buy a G100 when suddenly they were DC'd.

So, I was on the hunt for a Porter Cable 7424. Same thing, just doesn't have the lifetime warranty I guess. If this dies within a year, hopefully PC will take care of it. If it dies beyond that, hopefully I'll have gotten my investment out of it. Scored it new from eBay for 105 shipped.

On my way to ADS to get a backing plate and some w8006 & w9006's

Not sure what the warranty on the G100 is but, I am a woodworker use a ton of and Porter Cable tools in my shop and they have always been very good about replacing / repairing anything that has gone wrong with any of my tools. Hopefully you have a Porter Cable repair center in your town. If so, the repairs a super fast and easy.

I just used mine for the first time a couple of weeks ago and love it. Wish I had discovered these sooner.

The G100 comes with a lifetime warranty with no questions asked from Meguiars.
