Hello everyone,
My girlfriend and I are planning to buy a house. Since we want to save some money and I enjoy DIY projects, I have the following questions: Which sanding tools should one have at home, and what are the advantages and disadvantages of each?
I don’t have much experience yet, but I have heard about these types/forms of sanders:
1. Orbital sander
2. Linear sander
3. Random orbital sander (I noticed the Rotex from Festool, which is said to combine fine sanding, coarse sanding, and polishing quite well!?)
4. Belt sander
5. Angle grinder
6. Detail sander (delta sander)
Ideally, I would prefer one tool that can do almost everything, although that might hardly be possible. But which tools would actually be useful for a house?
The brand doesn’t matter much to me, as long as it’s not cheap quality. Makita, Metabo, Hilti, and Festool would be good examples.
I would really appreciate any tips and advice. Thanks!

The question is whether such minimal play and a slight grinding noise are normal. The machine still has 6 months of warranty, so I could send it in. Maybe Bauhaus or Obi have the device and I can compare it. That might be useful.
