Saw this on my way to church, thought it said $10. On my way home, it had a $5 tag on it. It's mine! I was planning on building a thickness sander form the examples on this forum, but this design seems to be much better than any I've seen so far. I plan to clean it up, and maybe get some UHMW tape for the slides. I did put some JPW on the slides, and it does move quite well. Maybe I'll setup a guage of sorts.

And the motor works! I'll need to find a belt, it is 25" centre to centre, with a 1-1/2" on the motor and 3" on the wheel.

Derek, New to woodworking. Does this tool perform the same function as a planer? If so, it cost $745 less than the one I just picked up

Hi Fred, it is a thickness sander. The planer would have knives, and I wish I had one of those as well!
The sanding sheet goes around the wheel, and the table slides up to whatever thickness you wish. I would use it primarily to sand guitar tops prior to jointing and joining the top pieces together. This unit gives me a few inches, so I'll probably use it on any flat piece. By the way, that is Canadian Dollars, all 5 of 'em.

That is really cool! I'll have to keep that design in mind.

I think it is cool. My wife would be wondering why. I did some quick calculations. I came up with 64.13 inches from the measurements you gave using 3.14 for pie. 64 and an 1/8 would be pretty close. You could just move the motor to adjust to a handy belt size. I wouold be interested in how well it works.

I came up with 57". (1.5+.75) x pi = 7" + 50" = 57".
3" pulley = 1.5" radius. 1.5" pulley = .75" radius. Circumference = (2r x pi)/2 [belt goes half way around].
Nice score indeed!:)

After cleaning and finishing, I think I'll mount the motor on a bit of a slide so I have some options. 57" sounds about right, though.JPG40504 wrote:I came up with 57". (1.5+.75) x pi = 7" + 50" = 57".

I'm also thinking about adding a screw-drive to the table for adjusting.
My 'shop' is my carport and everything gets put on wheels to go in the shed. While we don't have real weather in Vancouver (we have 'climate'), it's still a little cool to spend too much time out there, at least, until mid-april rolls around. Did see daffodils poking through today, though:)
