Hi
I have covered up an Artex coated ceiling with new plasterboard and taped the joints and applied the joining compound. I spotted a lot of info on the Web about dry wall sanders and saw a deal on the Aldi site for a Scheppach sander. I had high hopes for using this as in general I had seen videos etc saying that very little dust is generated if using a vacuum attached to the sander. However, after attaching a Hetty vacuum cleaner and starting to sand I found dust being flung out all over the room and control of the sander reminding me of my days as a part time cleaner fighting to control a floor buffer. Has anyone experience similar problems using one of these?
