Introduction: Cheap D.I.Y Disk Sander

About: I love to camp,hunt ,fish,bike,canoe or basically anything to do with the outdoors.

This is a really cheap disk sander I made for ...well duh sanding!!! I made it from an old Black and Decker drill and some scrap pine boards. The drill is simply held to the table with a u bolt and it has a small rest to put the thing your working on. The cowling is made from pine boards that were lying around. The disk it self was bought a a hardware store (RONA) a long time ago but you can still get them pretty much anywhere. The trigger on the drill is held on the right spot with zipties I just plugged it into a power bar and use that as the switch. The dust collection system is some old central vacuum pipe fastened under the work bench running to both the sander and the vice. The shop vac is a 45 liter one so im not to worried about it filling up to quick. Thanks for reading!!! Hope this was useful!!! All comments are welcome!!
