Default RE: Should I buy a belt sander for scratch-building?


ORIGINAL: dwr9

Pretty much all the companies make sanders with bigger disks and belts, just depends how much you want to spend. The 6 inch disk sander and 4" belt sander does just about anything I need to do for under $100. Doug
Doug, I'll go take a look at my local Home Depot and Lowes when I get a chance. Even though I think that I'd like a larger sander, I'm open to the smaller, cheaper ones as well. I'd like to start the build in June if I can find the time. You know how long it took me to build and get my mono on the water !
