To sand what

A whole house of walls.... the plasterer before had a go at putting a texture in the finish and it looks shite... it's only a subtle texture so not a huge amount of sanding

Festool then

Mirka deros or festool ets 150.. Both 150mm plates. You want the 5mm orbit vs the 3mm orbit which is used for cars.. Need a good vac with power takeoff designed for dust collection not a henry or similar as won't work. Use padsaver to protect the main pad velcro and 120g mesh discs for plaster and fillers but I also carry 80g and 180g mesh. You can buy giraffe sanders with far bigger heads but I don't use mine these days. What else do you want to know

I have a simple workzone one that I attach my workshop hoover to, dust simply doesn't exist for me?

I think the the mirka and festool have around 60 holes to pull dust through. You can watch YouTube for these sanders vs cheaper and how much dust they collect.. I think a good fan and pipe outside helps to. I run one sometimes. £110
