Has anyone found a dust bag which fits this sander?

It comes with a "dust bag" that I find more trouble than its worth. I fit it to both my Ridgid 12 gal shop vac and Festool CT26 dust extractor.

The default dust collection could be more accurately called a 'dust sampler'. Pretty useless. On my saw, I removed the useless tiny plastic scoop thing and fabricated my own custom scoop out of thin cardboard and masking-tape. It actually looks rather like the scoop on the Festool Kapex, and works quite well, considering. Then i hook up my shopvac to the saw.

There is an adapter (part # VAC002) that will adapt the sander to standard vacuum hose sizes (1-1/4" & 1-1/2" hoses).

you can buy a circular sanding disk to fit any drill. Any hardware or big box store like Walmart, Home Depot, Menards.

Mine came with an adapter, but I found it more trouble than it's worth. It's just a tube that allows you to connect the vacuum hose to it. With the vacuum hose connected, I found it awkward to control the sander. The hose always seemed to catch on the edge of the piece I was sanding and wouldn't allow me to move it in the direction I wanted until I freed the hose again. I much prefer the filtered dust catcher setup. Yeah, it fills up rather quickly, but it pulls off and cleans out easily.

Hello. Yes it has a dust port and you can buy the bag along with the portable stand like I did. This really is a great saw if you need a portable saw. I thing it is the best and I have been in this business for over 35 years. And my body feels it!

No holes, so you would not be able to use the dust collector bag - which doesn't seem to be a major problem with a smaller grinder/sander. It's a good hook-and-loop backer pad option for the Makita GV5000 & GV5010 disc sanders. Makita only provides screw-on sandpaper and backer plates, but for many applications the hook-and-loop is easier and less expensive.

The sander comes with a hole maker. Just put the sandpaper on the sander and place it on top of the hole maker. Very easy to do. On a side note, this sander doesnt collect much dust in its bag anyway.

I think this is the same one I have and the Storage Container was included, a sample 8 hole sanding disk which I could not find locally, ended up ordering the grits I needed later, the StickFix ?? not sure if its the Velcro like - yes. Does not hookup to other Dust collection systems smoothly they do provide a 3" or so piece of tubing that I was able to zip-tie the ends to my Fein device controlled vac. Works well but wasn't really the right tool for the boat bottom I was sanding ended up soda blasting it.

No it doesn't but this is a very nice sander. Easy dust collection bag. Extra long cord. Flat surface for mounting is convenient.

Sorry no, the one you need is mounted with two screws, also has a different hub, Makita part number 196905-1 if Amazon doesn't get stock of these (I see they are out) try ereplacementparts.com it's listed for over 40$. If that's the case, you may want to buy a replacement sander. Amazon has the entire Makita line at great prices. I love shopping Amazon.

I don't know about the other sander you mention, but I have been very happy with the 3710. I can't say that the dust bag is of much use, but the unit sands surfaces quickly and easily.

It is a great sander but I don't know that it is catching a lot of dust with the bag-

The quickest(?) way to obtain a replacement is to find a local service center for B & D. Make it easy; take the sander with you to the store. If they can't help, call/email the company, with the model number/part number of the needed item. Option 3 might be eBay. I have seen stuff on eBay that I never expected--especially parts. Option 4: make your own. Save the neck. and the stiffening rod, of the old one and fasten a new bag to it. If you machine sew, so much the better. Pick material that won't let dust seep through it while running. You can vary the size--forget the zipper they usually jam after a few uses--empty it through the neck. Good luck. PS: Keep the cost in mind. It might not be worth it to buy.
