Spindle sander !
« on: July 23, 2011, 11:32:00 AM »
My Harbor Freight spindle sander is going south on me. It had served me well. I have built about 15 self bows and almost 6 glass bow using it. There is a Ridgid on CL for 100.00. Is this a good sander or should I just get another 100.00 at Harbor Freight. Thanks, Don

I may just get a new one. I see they have a lifetime service agreement after the 3 year warranty. Don
