New tool for the bow shop
« on: October 28, 2018, 08:51:31 AM »
I've been wanting an oscillating sander for a while now.  I found one at an auction yesterday for a great price.  It came with all of the accessories and manual.  I want to get some good belts for it.  Any suggestions?

I have the same one Clint I have had good luck with the grey belts from Lows I dont remember the brand name but there made for hand belt sanders 36 & 60 grit they last a good while, I tried the red ones from HD and they dont last long I like mine easy to move around never tried the spindles on mine I have a dedicated spindle sander.

Not sure if I have seen that type of unit before as most guys have the dedicated spindle sander.  But I like that one it is the cats meow.  :clapper:

It has the attachments to make it just a spindle sander if I want.

Atta boy, Clint.

I buy all my paper there.

I get 9" x 11" blue zirconium sanding sheets in lots of 100, pretty cheap.
