Drywall Power Sander

is an electric tool with a rotating sanding head, often on a long, extendable pole, used to quickly and efficiently smooth joint compound (mud) on large walls and ceilings, featuring variable speeds, dust collection, and a swiveling head for hard-to-reach areas, saving significant labor over manual sanding. Its used to sand drywall. It connects to a hepa vac to collect the dust. Porter Cable invented the original drywall power sander but the patent has expired after 20 years and now there are hundreds of different models.
