When I used my stationary belt sander to sand the edge of a board, it was hard to keep the edge straight and square. So I solved this problem by adding a fence to the side of my sander.

Disk Sander Multi-Purpose (PDF)
Having the right tool for the job certainly makes a woodworking task easier. Take shaping and smoothing parts, for example.

The cutting diagrams and materials list are available to download in this Online Extra.

Sander Stand
My random-orbit sander sees a lot of use. But I always found it annoying that I could not just set it down on the bench after turning it off. I would end up wasting time holding the sander while the pad stopped spinning. Finally, I decided to take the bull by the horns and find a solution.

Sander, Pneumatic Drum
A pneumatic drum sander does a great job of smoothing and shaping all kinds of curved work. My shop-made sander works just like expensive commercial models, but requires only a few dollars worth of materials.

Sander, Shop Built Drum
The down-loaded plan was for a floor model drum sander. However, since floor space is at a premium in my shop. I opted for a table top model as you will see, that will fit an existing mobile base that performs double duty for my new drum sander and router table.

Sander, Shop made Inertia
by Bob Elliott - This project was inspired by a recent article in Woodturning Design. The handle started out roughly inches square. A 5⁄16 inches hole was drilled at slight angle and then the opposing 5⁄8 inches counter bores to accept the bearings. After drilling was complete, I placed it between centers to round the lower handle to accept the inches plastic tubing. Finished handle length is 8 1/2 inches.
