Description
This free-standing sanding machine drives a 2-inch wide abrasive belt vertically down behind a small table that supports the workpiece. A vertical backing plate presses back against the pressure on the workpiece. The machine has a variable-speed control and a dust collector. Its three-wheel architecture makes it easier to control the belt tension.
