Purchased Porter Cable 7336 a few hours ago! My Nephew got me the Edge 2000 pad kit as a Christmas gift. I can't wait until the weather gets warmer! :yay

Congrats on the new PC and pads. let me know how the edge 2000 pads turn out.
 
If I may ask, what's the difference between the 7336 and 7424, which I have.
Would it be worth upgrading or are the differences small? Thanks. :huh:
 
No differences other than a counter weight difference which you can buy the 6" one for the 7424 for a few dollars. Theres a link out there that has the differences if you want to search for it...
 
Please ignore my previous post, I answered my own question, I think. I went to Porter-Cables web site and did a little research. If anyone else wants to know, the 7424 and 7336 machines are identical but the 7336 ships with a polishing pad and the 7424 doesn't. (At least when I bought mine it didn't.) Motor specs are the same otherwise. If there's anything else let us know. Thanks. :stick
 
The link provided suggest using a 6" counter weight when using 6" pads and up.MY question is my PC was shipped with a 5" counter weight and the pads i use are LC 6".5", am i gonna have to swith out the CW.

Joe- I've been using my PC for 2 years now with a 5" CW and don't have any problems or major vibrations. I haven't used a PC with 6" so I don't know first hand what the differences are. This is with 6.5" pads aswell. Maybe I'll pick up a 6" one and see for myself what the differences are.

budman if you decide go with the 6" CW please let me know how it works out.

I'm in the same boat as Netspec- waiting for the weather to warm up. But I will buy a 6" counter weight with one of my next purchases from Autogeek or PAC, but I've stocked up over the winter so I don't know when that'll be, but I will let you know when I get it though.
