I have a 1/4 sheet random orbit sander, now 3 years old, been working fine. Went to use it today, and it just jumps all over the place, eventually tearing the paper off. Since it was fine two days ago, this is puzzling. Slip a gear or sumpin'?

Looking for a good small detailed sander to use on turning projects. I just watched the video Ron Altier post about the whatchamacallit thing. I saw the guy using a small Makita sander that I think would be nice. Does anyone have this or is there something better out there. Not sure what to look for. Is there attachments that would be useful?? Thanks for the suggestions John T.

Yesterday I managed to extract myself from the busy life of Honey Do's and kids daily events and get a little time in the shop with our Claro Rocker. A week ago when I started laying out the arms ontop of the arm pads that are basically the top of the front legs, I realized I made a major mistake in my calculations for the arm rests to meet up at the proper height to the joint at the rear leg/backrest area. I was a full 1/4" too low, the joinery was not going to meet up where it was supposed to by my previously laid out joints. After much thinking and tinkering with ideas and layouts, I

My daughter requested me to make a cartoon like owl for a very close friend who loves owls so much she even has an owl tattoo. I can't carve due to a condition in my hands, so I had to use my woodworking machines. I started with a pine block, cut the basic shape on the band saw and turned it down on the lathe. Then shaped with my spindle sander. I used a picture of a real owl for inspiration. She wanted it cartoon like, so I put spectacles and a hat on him. Hope she likes it.

I had a Bosch sander with a finger that protruded out a couple of inches @ was about 1 inch wide. It had the main pad also. It was great for tight areas. Does anyone have one of these or know anyone the sells them? I have tried Bosch but it may take a couple days for them to get back to me. Preston -

I have been recruiter by a friend to sell a belt sander that belonged to his dad. It is a Doerr bench top sander that looks to be made maybe in the 50's or 60's. Anyone know anything about it and perhaps its value? I know it is cast iron and darned heavy.

It's been a few months since I won the raffle, winning the $500.00 gift certificate from Laguna Tools. I've finally gotten it set up in my shop, so thought it was time to post a photo. -
Have had this sander for 15 years. Great sander, works well, never an issue. I like the larger rectangular top verses the other rounder or oval. Only issue I can say I have would be typical of all models I have seen. To consolidate space they put the tools and extra sanding rods around the perimeter of the sander. great idea, BUT I have rarely seen anyone's picture of one where the entire sander can be accessed on all sides. Mine has been against a window for years. Moved it this week and still has same problem. The tools are on the back. So you have to reach blind over the top to get

You can see by the lack of dust I keep it all going outside... Well sometimes I do forget to turn it on but it does work good once it is running.... Doc keeps tell me I am in good health.. I tell him I keep the bad stuff away with the layers of saw dust and he says well don't do anything differently and I say this has been going on since I bought the first table saw in 1960 a few days after I got out of the army... Good for you, he says... Sometimes I have to push some of the dust out with the Nasal Spray which is the only thing I ever use and is all I ever use in the winter with n

Years ago I was given this Sears Sander from a guy who said it was junk and would not spin, just hummed. At the time I discovered the tension was very tight. To get it going I pushed back on the tension arm and it worked so I went with that. Today I got to looking at this and wondered why does it not just fire up correctly. In looking at the belt as it spun I also noticed at the bottom pulley the belt was not tracking correctly. So I looked for an adjuster for tracking, much like on a hand held belt sander. Found that, and adjusted the tracking but the tension issue remained. Removed the cover

I see that Eagle America is selling a oscillating belt/spindle sander that looks a lot like the one ridgid sells at home depot. Same price as the ridgid one too. Wondering if it is the same? -
So I just made one of my many trips to Loews to get a roll of 14-2 wire, and saw this thing sitting in the middle of the isle. I didn't stop to look closely and as I walked pass I just though it was a small drum sander that worked like a belt sander (while wondering who the heck would want such a thing). Indeed, there were lots of drum sander sleeves on display with it. Nut those pics seem to show it has a cutter drum (they use it on concrete?). Anyone grabbed on yet?- 8 replies

Picked this up from another member over on the Canadian forum. It was in what can only be described as tough shape with no motor. It was completely encased in want looked to be a hard shell of bondo dust. At least thats what I assumed it to be given the seller said it came out of a body shop. But what the hay, I love a challenge. Fist step was to remove all the crud. Turns out it was fairly easy to scrape off. After complete disassembly I soaked all the painted parts in a strong hot bath of TSP which moved any remaining cru

What little I could get done, at least. Found out we were taking the GrandBRATS home a couple hours later than I thought....snuck off to the shop. Had a slab to resaw down to a batten...wound up breaking the bandsaw blade, digging out another (DULL) one, and finishing the cut. Then the planes took over. And the beltsander. and the spokeshave. Rounded both ends to match the curve of the top, Beltsander to taper each end a bit. No.3 plane and spokeshave to bevel the sides. Whew. Dust and shavings everywhere. Meh, it will have to do. The forstner bit was for

Used the vise to hold this box still, long enough to mark a line clear around.. Trying to land anywhere but right in a pin. Brought down the "new" saw, to cut the lines.. Yeah, it is the cordless one from the yard sale. It is also about as heavy as my all-metal saws. Cut my way around all four sides, with the second narrow end last, still had a bit of a bind.. Wound up with this. Set the bottom aside, for now. Added the insert for the top.. Just nailed in place, no glue. Then came those hinges... Had to remember which way it sat on
