About 7 years ago I was looking for a way to outfit my shop with tools that would help improve my work. At the time I was, well, financially challenged. I decided I would try my hand at building my own power equipment. The challenge: build a functioning 25" wide drum sander! Ideally, I wanted to finish the build within a couple months, but it ultimately took me the better part of 2 years! This was due to several moves and life changed at the time (all good changes, BTW :)). I did not always have a shop that gave me the space I needed, and financially I was strapped most of the time from continuing the project.
If I were to build it fresh from start to finish it may take a couple weeks to make the whole thing today, assuming I had all the parts on hand.
What do you think? Does it work? Please leave your comments below!
Here is a list of some of the suppliers I used to get the parts needed to build the machine:
www.grizzly.com/
www.rockler.com/
www.woodcraft.com/
www.grainger.com/
www.ebay.com/usr/usabearingsb...
www.acehardware.com/

Twists and turns. 5 years til now. Like the belt drive and tensioner. Looking at current prices I think I can make this type with a conveyor belt. Lowest price on 18 inch is grizzly but I can't justify total cost delivered. Thanks for this in depth video.

This is a nice build, which I'm sure you both enjoyed doing & received satisfaction from. These the rewards you receive from making something, the use of the machine from now on is the benefit. Enjoy.

I have had this in my 'watch later' list for quite some time. What I like most is the belt feed. The lack of belt feed on many of the DIY designs has kept me from pursuing them. You have quite a few ideas here I can incorporate. thanks

Nothing wrong with building your own machine. Usually, provided you have the skills or are ingenious enough, the homemade machine is better anyway. Love your videos. Thank you

Very nice build, well done! I would love to see another video explaining the lift table and how it functions. It looks like you have a chain running around the 4 bolts, tightening/loosening them to raise/lower the conveyor belt. Very cool indeed. A homemade power tool you don't have to be afraid to use is a rare thing. Thanks for the demonstration.

Very cool, I made an edge sander all out of MDF, made the 6” drums from MDF disks like you did on your drum, I made a jig to make them round. I sold it at one point and think I got $800. For it, probably only had $200 in it, used it for years. It used a 6 x 89 belt. Thanks for sharing

Hi, really enjoying your videos so far tq. Incase you haven't discovered this trick yet, a soft to medium nylon brush with as many bristles as possible against the sanding surface after each session or better yet after each pass will really get alot of buildup off each time. On my 100mm table top belt sander i went from about 90min(before breaking) on the previous belt to i think over 5h on the last belt (i think they were both 120grit). The belt was completely clean and newish to look at by the end but was only about 1/3 as effective so I'll just keep it & cut it up for other things. Yes the brushes will wear down somewhat quickly but if you can get them cheap it's a good option that keeps the same rate of abrasion going on the wood far far longer. I first discovered how suprisingly effective this was when i used the brush attachment on my Volta Ultima vaccuum which hasn't worn as much from doing it.

I like vintage org machines. Love green Oliver. But drum sanders are rare and very very heavy. This unit fills in the gaps. Very nicely done. I am putting this on my to do list.

A very nice build. You’ve been using it for 3 years but you wouldn’t get a guarantee for that long from a manufacturer for one of their (usually) overpriced pieces so very well done. For me I’m sure the one thing you can never buy though is the satisfaction you must get when you build something like this that works as well as this clearly does. All the best to you. Malc

Hey man 3 years later and the title of this video holds true! well done! I'd love to see a close up of everything underneath that gear motor. I've taken some great inspiration from this! I am going to make one very similar but going to add an attachment to move the dust collection underneath to allow it to double as a table drum sander as well! extremely well done! got my subscription!

Enjoyed your video a great deal on the rum sander a fine build and explanation on what you learned building it thanks for sharing your insight and knowledge i think that in general most woodworkers enjoy Thinking outside the box and creating tools and jigs that make our lives easier ! Besides buying something like a expensive tool to use is not as satisfying as building one that meets your needs plus it is just plain cool or bragging rights lol I did subscribe and will like , share , and look foward to more of your good videos in the future btw i am a retired woodworker with over 20 years experience in commercial woodworking who was forced to resign Due to a traumatic Brain injury that caused permanent paraylisis in some of my limbs at the moment i am between shops but I do plan on returning to my passion of wood in what ever fashion life permits in the future

That is cool. I have been trying to figure out if I will go "make/buy" and you made a really cool unit. FYI one option I have found for a cool drum, is you can buy a "SuperMax 19-38 Combo Sander Sanding Drum" by itself, as it is made to go in those combo units which allow you to switch out the drum to use sanding drum, wire wheel, flap disk etc. So that would for someone making a 19" sander, give you a drop in fancy drum which already has the fancy tool-less sanding clips as well. That is a bit pricey at ~ $200, but would save a lot of work on making the drum for people who do not have a lathe, etc. Again, you made a very cool sander and thanks for sharing. :)

@IH1940HAY
@IH1940HAY 3 года назад
Really like your video and your neat machine. Could you explain how you spliced the conveyor belt together so you didn’t get a raised portion thus causing the piece being sanding to raise up higher causing a slight gouge.

I'd like to see more detail of the elevation mechanism and how you designed it. I'll start building my own drum sander later this year, but hadn't considered this type of elevation system; I didn't think it was feasible to build. Can you give us more detail on it?

Very nice job, well done, nice bit of kit and all. The pinch rollers and drive belt are often not included in most home builds, and I think that they are pretty much required if you want to put the machine through it's paces. From looking at it, I'd venture that it's as good as any brand name production item out there of the same class (diameter of roller + width) - the cost of a commercial unit which would be significantly better in most any respect would be several zeros wider than your cost, and, to be honest, not worth it other than for the amount of cast iron it would hopefully contain. Thank you for an excellent overview and highlight vid.

@JonathanDann
@JonathanDann 6 лет назад
So if I understand correctly, you adjust the roller tension with the screw, which raises or lowers the roller at the same time. Then you adjust the whole bearing mount to move the roller back in the opposite direction of the tension adjustment? How do you square the table to the drum? I assume squareness of the table to the rollers matters less because they’re on springs? Awesome build.

I hope you're still responding to questions here because I have a couple. What is the diameter of the rollers for the feed belt and how far apart are they? And where did you get the pinch rollers, what size are they and what are they covered with? That's actually 5 questions disguised as 2. lol I'm building a drum sander about this same size, but I'm starting with a treadmill frame, rollers, motor and conveyor for the feed mechanism. The sanding drum and drive motor for that are coming from another treadmill with a bigger HP motor. This is an awesome machine you've built and I really enjoyed watching your video.
@larseisbaer3281
@larseisbaer3281 3 года назад
Michael, that is a very nice drum sander you built there man! Interested in some data about the machine and some material you used. What RPMs is the drum running with or the other way around what does the label on the 3HP motor say about RPMs? What material did you make the pinch roles out of? Are the pinch roles surfaced with rubber or similar material to add some grip to them for the material they pinch towards the conveyor belt? What rating have the springs in that fancy block for the pinch roles? I have seen that you can adjust them with the screw but I am sure they need a basic load so that they work properly. Thanks!
