Belt/disk sander table addition

admin

So my craftsman belt/ disk sander only has one table that can be moved from the belt to the disk sander, but i hate having to switch them back and forth all the time. So i started making another table for the disk sander. Im going to later put wood for the top on it since the disk side is used alot for wood. So heres the sanderHeres the hole for the table to plug intoLuckly the hole is 5/8 and thats the only roundbar i had left  On to the next post!!!!

And now look at themStrip welded to the round barAnother pic of the weld. Used lincoln nr 211mp fluxcoreAnd finally put into the hole so see how it looksThis is as far as i got right now. Stay tuned for more progress

Reply:Man, that was one rusted piece of metal  Looks like some of the stuff I have layin' around hereThe welds look really good.  And the top is cool how it's dadoed.  Did you use a dado blade on a table saw, or a router?Spatter's the pits with the flux core ain't it?"Any day above ground is a good day"http://www.farmersamm.com/
Reply:Sam,I used the table saw but i didn't feel like puttin in the whole dado blade setup, so i just nibbled away until the grove was right. Then i cleaned it up with the chisel.ThanksShane
