Has anyone here purchased this sander, looked it over closely or maybe
seen a demo work? Just wondering what your thoughts were. I'm kicking
around the idea of buying one. Looks like it would save an awful lot
of time by running boards through to remove planer marks. I have a
stack of hickory that is just begging for something like this.

If you can afford something wider, I'd save up. Haven't used or seen
that particular model.

Yes, but I think I could get the 12inch in the basement without
"somebody" noticing. A 24inch would be a little more difficult. :)

Wives aren't supposed to be feared LOL.. Explain to her all the time
and money a 24 inch would save. And it would also get that list of
TO-DOs done so much quicker :)

I've worn that out! I need a new excuse.

I've thought about doing this... :) All I'd need to do is run the belt
sander for a half hour and everything looks like it's been there for
years.

Leave the DC off for a while. She'll give you plenty of room ... by the
time the dust clears and she has ventured into your sanctum sanctorum
(wood shop) you can look her in the eye and honestly say:
"Why no, hon ... that isn't new."
;-)
'New' is SUCH a subjective term ... ;-)
