Oh, that's right! Thanks, Kyle. I forgot about the Official PLUG bag thingy.

I have a Porter-Cable round orbiting sander, but those don't do edges too
very well, given the round shape. There are little edging sanders that have
square pads, like the Makita (we have one, but I don't have the model
number), that work well. If you are really doing something heavy-duty, you
can rent an edging sander that will really peel those edges up very
professionally.

I sanded my entire kitchen floor by hand with the Porter Cable orbital
sander, on my hands and knees, after I laid 1 x 8 pine planks nailed through
the face, to the subfloor. Get knee pads, man, or you'll never walk again! I
won't even mention the backache.

I don't know why people keep bickering about bags when it's ALREADY BEEN
DECIDED people.

Just go BUY it and be DONE with it.

Now, someone please tell me which random orbit sander I need to do the edges
of my kitchen floor after I drum sand the middle of it.
