Cyclo for Christmas?

Every year i have no idea what to tell the wife to get me for christmas. I dont need much, dont want much, nothing that would be financially feasable anyways haha.



I guess i dont need the cyclo either, but i want to tinker with this hobby.



I am also considering a rotary. I would like to take my skill level up another notch, for just my own OCD's sake. I like the idea of handling a tool that needs respect, i am pretty good with power tools, well the ones i have anyways.



Get both, ya, well, that would be compulsive, i dont like compulsive spending, even for OCD :)



So, either:



Cyclo

Rotary

Neither, keep using the pc, your vehicles look good enough :LOLOL
 
Well, much as I love the Cyclo, if you don't mind the PC I think I'd go for the rotary. It'll do stuff that nothing else can do whereas the Cyclo is more of an improved version of the PC. But if you have a car that you're not gonna polish aggressively anyhow (thin paint, other fragility issues) then go with the Cyclo. Ditto if you just don't like using the PC.
 
Then get the Rotary. The Cylco doesn't so much "bridge the gap" as it replaces the PC. I'm not certain if it does a better job, but it does a quicker job. The "work smarter, not harder" motto seems to apply.



I'm 100% happy with my cyclo, but I wouldn't have a huge need for one if I still had a PC. Anyway, I could see the benefit to using the cyclo if I did many cars a week. The brush attatchments are very useful (infact I've used it more as a shampooer than a polisher).
 
i say get the rotary, as you will eventually want/need it at one time or another. my b-day is coming up, along with x-mas and that's what i am going to get next. there's a nice shiny makita 9227c with my name on it! :lol
