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.

@FernsDad

I have done exactly the same thing with the exact same clamps - you are not alone! The images made them look bigger than they actually are.

@MsRmaclaren

Ah, the old, make more work for yourself kind of project.

@BischBaschBosch

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.👍

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.

@neilarmour4497

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!

@EvanDunville

If you needed a disc sanding solution they make discs to go in your table saw so it acts as a disc sander.

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.

@finbarstadt7213

Haven't you just invented a sander pretty much identical to the bench sander you got rid of?

@hansdegroot8549

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)

@EECCtv

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

@ChrispHarding

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.

@SRG-Learn-Makers

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.

@Dickie2702

Good plan if you have a belt sander and want to use it freehand or stationery.

@Quaker521

Great little project with a great result. Thanks for the video.

@ianvicedomini2648

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

@wrinx

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

@puddinggeek4623

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.
