Belt Sander Stand

Step 4 Finishing

That's about it! Clean off an area on your bench so you can mount your new stand to it. I'm still trying to find a clean area. :-)

I know most Instructables viewers are from the breed of "Makers." You enjoy making and creating things, even though you never finish them. :-) A stationary belt sander should help you make more things and make them faster. So once you're done with your belt sander stand, make more stuff so you can post more Instructables!

Please feel to leave comments! Thanks! :-)

P.S. - I found a similar project after I posted mine:

Great job and an alternative if you don't have a belt sander but do have an angle grinder! : - )

if it was was i would like to add a parts rest/ plate so if you want a perpendicular sand you can just slide it up and you know you'll get a 90 degree angle, but it could be taken off ( or adjusted to the right angle) if you don't want a 90 degree angle. just another idea mdog :)

Yes, thanks for the idea. Handyman1959 below had the same idea and built it! : )

Simple, solid, and nicely finished. I'm on it . . .

Nicely done! you even thought of the dust removal :) And although I saw other projects for the beltsander stands I like how you moulded yours to the actual sander and how it looks more refined yet simple.
