I need to solve my belt sander problem! How many belt sanders does a woodworker need? Especially one that doesn't often use them! One of them has got to go, and one of them needs to be re-purposed to function as a replacement for my disc sander. Let's do it!

I have the same Bosch sander. There are two threaded holes on the top (yours are clogged with sawdust so you may not have noticed them!) so you could have just bolted through the back of the jig and maybe not needed the clamps.

@EECCtv 3 месяца назад

I have this exact sander and use it for the same purpose, but I always mounted it into my vice with a bit of bodgery. This project will be extremely useful to build. Great video, thank you

Did the same thing, mine became useful after “only” three years or so. I built a little sled to shorten a couple dozen small-ish parts on the table saw. There these tiny clamps worked great.

Great belt sander stand. I never look what brands of tools somebody is using. When I saw a dark green sander, I thought it was Parkside (the brand I have) Don't compare yourself to others. You are you and you are doing great. Just look back and compare yourself with your less experienced you .

@neilarmour4497 6 месяцев назад

I've been wanting to do something like this for years with my belt sander.... the only thing I use it for nowadays is to sand the dinging room table once every 6-7 years, so I can't permanently build it into a jig, but it would get so much more use mounted with a table. Never thought to use toggle clamps. Will give this a go thanks!

@SRG-Learn-Makers 6 месяцев назад

You have to but tons of IEC connectors (the compute PSU ones) an shorten the cables of your tools. It changed my life. I saw Mr.Hornberger do it with fancy ones but is really expensive, IEC works beautifully and cheap. Even better is that some powertools have really good cables, those are the one you buchit to make your extenders.

@havenview 6 месяцев назад

"Even better is that some powertools have really good cables, those are the one you buchit to make your extenders." You have to be VERY careful about this as often power tools are double insulated so their cables do not have an earth. This means you end up with an extension that, if used in some circumstances, will mean the end device is not earthed

@ChrispHarding 6 месяцев назад

Nice to see the focus not on "more tools = better" I like projects like this - and have also gotten rid of lesser used tools, and finding ways of making the ones I do have work better for me. A lathe can make a good disc sander in a pinch!

@DavePawson 6 месяцев назад

Same belt sander, I bodged mine years ago, clamped to the desk. Your (design as you go) seems much more elegant - posh too with dust extraction! Thank you.

@wrinx 3 месяца назад

Great idea - I have a seldom used belt sander which could be re-purposed in this way - thank you!

@Dickie2702 6 месяцев назад

Good plan if you have a belt sander and want to use it freehand or stationery. Little tip for when you need the adjustment you showed using washers. Epoxy putty is great for this application, simply protect the toolside with cling film and the putty will happily mould itself around any irregular shape and bond to most materials.

@ianvicedomini2648 6 месяцев назад

Brilliant stuff Keith. I have a similar sander made by Parkside and I wouldn't be without it. I have a disc and belt sander which I use a lot but your design looks like it'll work wonderfully mate

@rogerprice4504 6 месяцев назад

I've also got a Parkside, and wonder if you have found any plans for this, with dimensions?

@hansdegroot8549 6 месяцев назад

@@rogerprice4504 I also have a Parkside. But I'm going to download the plans and I'll adapt them for my sander. But probably only next winter. There are so many other things on my to-do list.

Excellent video as always. You can’t beat a bit of bodging to get the job done, it i good to see some mistakes/ struggles along the way. Keep up the great work.

@ThisOldManOfTheSea 6 месяцев назад

When I purchased my Elu belt sander (some 30 years ago) it came with a fairly substantial aluminium box which allows me to do what your box achieves. It even comes with an adjustable longitudinal bracket which provides the ability to sand at 90 or 45 degrees. It still works today.😀

@BischBaschBosch 6 месяцев назад

Nice solution there bud. I see now why you were following my sander exploits. 😂 For that bosch sander ( and the blue version) there is actually a bench mount and angle fence/table available for it - just so folk know like. Another good thing about these Bosch ones is there's also a sanding frame for it (keeps it flat on large surfaces). They're more than the sander costs mind. All adds up to making it a decent versatile bit of kit.👍

@EightBitTony 6 месяцев назад

Can you still buy them? Last time I checked it didn't look like it?

@torque9889 6 месяцев назад

The Bosch one is great, I don’t have a thicknesser so it’s essential for using pallets for me. Belt sander with a rubber stick is a killer combo. Got me out of so many difficult builds where a plane was overkill but an orbital was just not enough.

@andyc972 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Keith, it's always interesting to see how your workshop evolves, regardless of fashion it's important to keep in mind just how you work and use equipment ! That looks a great solution and if it works for you then it's right, keeping it simple is a good strategy and we like your style, no need to compete with other makers even if we enjoy them for other reasons ! I remember when you only had the Bosch, it's served you well ! I have five belt sanders and none of them are cordless, I guess I need another ! 😉

@RagnBoneBrown 6 месяцев назад

@paulchambers4137 6 месяцев назад

@RagnBoneBrown have you considered making the disk sander as an add on to your lathe? You can buy prebuilt sanding plates to go onto some chuck jaws, or a piece of 18mm ply, with some velcro for a 305mm (or smaller) sanding disk, and a faceplate ring will do just the job. Great video as always

@stephenwillis9518 6 месяцев назад

I think those clamps that you can maybe use longer bolts to get more travel? Love these little projects there awswome !

@shaun30-3-mg9zs 6 месяцев назад

Hi Keith, I like the idea "bodge it" To be honest it's a brilliant idea if you have a spare belt sander it's making alternative uses for your tools and it works well. I've enjoyed this project gives me food for thought. As always a great video Take care

@OldtoNewRestorations 6 месяцев назад

I was considering doing something like this, but I went the disc sander route using my lathe in the end - I mounted a circle of MDF onto a lathe backplate and stuck a 305mm sanding disc to it. Works great, although the angle's a bit awkward and I need to do a better job of the table.

@cobberpete1 6 месяцев назад

Yep, Bodgie wins every time 🤪😂. You may of also thought of this idea... Using a face plate on your lathe with a disc the size of your swing with Velcro. I made a table that fits into the tool rest support and is quick and easy to change grits. I think it was a guy called Mike Peace I got this idea from many years ago.

If you still want a disc sander then why not make one for your lathe? That what I did, just made a 8" circular bit of wood with a bit out of the back to go into a four jaw chuck. Bit of velco on the front to hold. I bought a support that replaces the tool rest but you could easily make something that sat on the lathe bed.

@michaelwillson6847 6 месяцев назад

I have fallen to that of those exact toggle clamps pain in the***e. Looks great though a may have to do this i got the lumberjack 4 inch belt sander while back its great but its a real pain to try clamp to a bench. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

@welshkid12 6 месяцев назад

Great project, I should do something more permanent with mine, I always bodge some crude set up when I need to use mine like this. Could you have swapped the toggle clamp bodies and hooks around? So you have just 2 clamp bodies on the sander part, then 4 hooks on the fence? If that makes sense? May just tidy it up a little not have 2 clamps swinging around. 👍

@geoffreycoan 6 месяцев назад

Your Bosch belt sander looks almost identical to my Lidl belt sander. Same green, looks like the same controls, so would probably fit your jig without much modification. Would you believe I bought the exact same miniature toggle clamps from Amazon as well as few weeks ago. The dimensions are on one of the photos and I saw there were some comments about the size of the clamps, but yes I was surprised with them as well, and yes, they went back for a refund as well !

@georghofmann1782 6 месяцев назад

the Bosch PBS 75 AE Set has alrdy a Base, Clamps and a Table to screw on to convert it to Stationary, also the PBS 75A has 2 holes with threads on to, to screw the Base on, wich you could use .. just buy the OG accessorie Tilting Table to screw on the Sides .. Toolless btw .. i have the same Beltsander .. works great search for "Parallel and Angle Guide for GBS 75 AE Professional PBS 7A" PS: on the last Picture you even see the black Back-Base from the Set, to mount the Beltgrinder in different positions .. greatings from Germany PPS: RU-vid somehow deletes my direct Ansers, even without any Links .....
