|  new member Hi, I'm a new member and a novice scroller. I am wondering about a sanding system. At present I use my Dad's old craftsman drill press with either pneumatic or hard drums. This is OK if you don't mind standing on your right ear. I was wondering about the Seyco Flex Drum sander or the King Arthur pneumatic sander system. I've never heard of King Arthur, except as a flour, to make home made breads. If anybody has any suggestions please let me know. Thank you Liz |

|  Welcome to the crew, I have a Grizzly Tools drum sander. Its a 1hp motor with 2 output shafts and when I bought it came with a 3" and 4" pneumatic drums that are 8" long. They now sell it with the 2 drums and a flap sander. I have5 belt sanders and several disc sanders but the drum sander is the one I use the most. I will be buying the new one the next time I come down to the states. Just go to the Grizzly web site and you will find a lot of ways to spend money.

| Welcome to the group Liz. You might do well to ask what some members would suggest in sanding equipment or check out the tools section. Take care Toni

| Welcome, Liz I have lots of various grits of sand paper and a Foredom powercarver that doubles for a sander. Hubby, has a big sander with a couple sanding belts. To heavy for me and that thing scares the be-geivers-out of me. So I let him run that baby. KathyRo

| Hi eknego. there is tons of sanding things you could do. but if you would like to lay your pneumatic or hard drums sidways. there is a way. you could get argor adaptors to go on other tools. like a grinder. they come in differant sizes. I got myself a keyless chuck that will slide onto a shaft. mine is 1/2" but you can get them in 5/8ths also. there is tons more. if you wish to know. you could also get your self a sanding mop. your friend Evie I also wish to welcome you to the forume. |
