Tool for cleaning up tubes

Post by fiatben »

Maybe this should be in Maintenance & Repairs, but I just saw a short clip, an ad of course, on youtube that got me searching for more info. It seems like this could be an alternate solution to cleaning up the tubes on an SS.

It's a Metabo sander for pipe and tubing and I think it's a pretty neat idea/improvement on a belt sander. Anyone got any experience? Comments?
