Product Description

Amazon.com Review

If your workshop doesn't have one of these combination sanders, it's probably because you don't think you need it. But put it to work once, and you'll realize you can't get along without it. Its uses are endless. You know those tight curves and angles you have to sand by hand? Not anymore, thanks to this Shopmaster sander. The automatic belt-tensioning and tracking controls are conveniently located and easy to use, and the built-in power takeoff for a flexible shaft accessory (sold separately) is a great extra touch that allows you to accomplish any number of additional tasks. Finishing curves or odd-shaped work is a cinch when you remove the belt platen, and you'll even be sanding chamfers and bevels just by tilting the sturdy aluminum tables on both the belt and the handy 5-inch disc sanders. The included miter gauge allows you to sand at compound angles, too. The side panel removes in a blink to change belts. The 1-inch belt sands 3,150 surface feet per minute powered by a 1/4-horsepower induction motor. A built-in dust port allows connection to your dust management system. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

I bought this to trim up pen blanks. It does the job vey well. Overall, I may eventually exceed the capacity for this machine but it works great. I hooked it up to my 1 1/4" shop vac (I used duct tape as it didn't fit exactly) and there is no dust at all. I just need to find replacement sanding discs (I'd like to convert it to use hook and loop pads).

This review is from: DELTA SA150 Shopmaster 1-Inch/5-Inch 1/4 Horsepower Belt/Disc Sander (Tools & Home Improvement)

I've seen more of these in home shops than perhaps any other small sander. It's a solid little import, well made, with a good sales and support organization (Delta) behind it. One problem: The 36" belt is a little short, particularly if you want to use it with a fint belt for sharpening chisels. There isn't enough space to fit a chisel in, and the platen behind the belt is far too short. I traded mine away and replaced it with a similar unit with a 42" belt. The new owner is using it for musical instrument repair.

But it's still a fine unit. Modelmakers in particular will get a lot of use from it. You can't spend less and get a decent sander.

I really like this sander. I am a hobbyist knife maker and use it for handle shaping. It is perfect. The only thing I might change on it is the disk, could be bigger. It fits neatly in the conrer of my work bench and is light enough to move around as needed. Replacment belts and disks are easily obtained from woodworking stores.
