W also have the 3 disc attachment and use it with a Milwaukee. The Milwaukee does not heat up like the Mikita and it goes all day. I just did a similar marble candy tops and was able to blow right through them. The Milwaukee was the key.

Subject: [sccpartners] Planetary Tool for counter tops?

Hi, We are starting a job grinding, honing and polishing some old marble tables (large areas), and was curious if anyone has much experience or comment about going with one of those flex or intertool planetary head honing/polishing machines.  I typically just use makitas with appropriate heads and also have one of those aluminum three socket heads that goes onto a makita.  Am thinking it is just as easy to go with 7" electroplated discs. These are old marble tables that were used to make candy, and they will continue to make candy with them, so they don't have to look like church alters, just ding free with a satin or semi-gloss finish.
Thanks.
Baird
