I know it's an expensive piece of kit. I was thinking it might be a one stop shop when used by itself or with the 2x Powermate. 21mm and 10.5mm.
I still reckon an ES 30mm would serve you better, and save a ton of $$.

Then get yourself a small ~10mm for planetary, and save yourself some heart ache. When you see and feel the size and weight of the Ethos 21 let alone the 2" powermate you'll understand
