Boren Power Trowel 5 Blades

Speed is set slow to medium just to show how the 5 blade differs from the 4 blade on flatness.

I like to use the pan when floating, so i guess it wouldnt really matter weather you have 4 or 5. I dont ever run a 5 blade machine , i like to run the pan float twice, combination blades twice and a last burn or two with the blades. I like the idea of 5 it does look neat and works well when trying to save a slab. But i personally think the cost difference of having to buy an extra float/blade each time isnt worth it. Thats just my opinion thow :)

Appreciate the comment, I'm the owner of the Manufacturing Company that produces this machine, and a finisher for 47 years. In my experience with this type of machine is that it will lay a floor down flatter when it is wet then a 4 blade machine, and if you happen to fall behind, it will catch you up better then any machine there is. Curious what type of 5 blade machine you run because that makes a huge difference also.

at that point it doesnt matter if its got 5 or 4 your already sealed it up.. what makes it flatter is using combonation blades.. the 5 blases is only good for a last burn or to briing a slab back to life if loosing it..... ps. and new machiene perfectly level like that would leave it flat.. that looks like it was the first day running it
