PORTER-CABLE Bench Belt/Disc Sander Detachable dust collector

After 29 years on my Craftsman belt - disk sander including a bearing replacement about a decade ago I wanted to replace it with a direct drive.
The only consumer direct drive that didn't cost lots of money is the P/C. I've read a lot of bad reviews so I hope I got a good one?

I made a detachable  dust collector because some times you need to pass a long item over the surface and it was a good challenge.

I modified the intrusive dust collector provided an then taped some high power magnets to the inside or the chamfer on the left of the cover.

I folded up this 0.030" steel cover.
Snaps on and off with ease.

It is a quiet machine and that is important to me.
