Re: sanding machines
Search ebay for backpack vacuum. There are quite a few on there, one ending today its actually a 6.5 hp shop vac brand! That is a very good idea for dust containment, and convenience! The shop vac looks kind of small to be worthy, but cheap, otherwise the commercial ones have a fairly large canister. I used one at a hotel once where I was doing a major repair job, it was a commercial one with a very comfortable sling, waist and shoulders.

Re: sanding machines
I am currently working on a new design for a major tool manufacturer and have some prototypes that need testing. Is anyone interested in testing this out and giving feedback. Prefer someone in the Mid Atlantic region.

Re: sanding machines
Sorry it took so long to get back to you. found out it was a shop vac brand thats very common around here. Has an adapter with it to fit the pc sander. backpacks ok but the bag is small. We love the Porter Cable sander up here in the east. Ceilings are all smooth finish and customers are fussy fussy. Nice for level 5 skim sand too.
