A new toy in the shop

Post by Kevin Sjostrand »

I received this combo sander yesterday from a friend. 12" disc & 6" wide belt. 1 hp motor pulling 13 amps. It is a beast.
A nice addition to my already over crowded shop.

Diane, that sander is over kill for my little shop, but how can a person pass up on a freebie.
I use the dining room table also....the last couple of days to glue on the bridge, install the tuners and strings on my crossover.....way to humid in my non-climate controlled shop.
My wife puts up with me!

You can NEVER pass up a freebie, especially one like that! You beg I'd have it downstairs. I built my entire guitar on my dining table Kevin. I feel too closed in, down in the basement.

That sander looks big enough to be useful. I have a small one, and it's not, usually.
Slowest builder on the forum. These things take time. Apparently.
