Thanks...I will look them over...you would think they would be more common on sites so you could use your 6" pads with both the PC and rotary....

Re: 5" plate for a rotary..Where..

Thanks guys..I ordered a plate ..actually a 4.75 as I ordered a bunch of CCS pads from Danase (5.25) and and I believe the plate will work fine with my 6" pads also...

Spring is around the corner and my truck took a heavy toll from winter....

Next is my Menzerna order from Europe....
