Customer Reviews
Best addition to my shop!
This is my first bench top sander and I was really undecided as to whether to go with this one or step up to a floor/base model. My shop is somewhat limited in space which was the deciding factor for me. However I'm more than satisfied with this sander. Makes finishing so much easier and quicker. Once I got the hang of it, it reduced my finishing time in half, if not more. The tilt table is a great feature as well. I make custom made wine racks and the 1 1/2 inch spindle is perfect for finishing the cutout for the bottle neck. I used to shop at several woodworking websites but with the service and selection on Amazon I'm convinced it's the best place on the web for woodworking equipment and supplies.
Spindle Sander
Purchased a Jet 5.5 inch 1/2 HP benchtop oscillating spindle sander with additional spindle assortment from Amazon.com and item arrived in excellent time and in great condition. Unpacked and installed the supplied spindle and went to work. The table top is cast and large enough to handle most sanding jobs. The motor is wisper quiet and powerful enough to do the things that I will be doing. Overall I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend to a friend.
Nice tool
I bought this a few months ago. I had been using my drill press for way too long. This is well made and does a very good job. I would have given it 5 stars but the dust collection isn't all that impressive. It probably picks up a little more than half the dust. I was expecting the suction to pull away anything around the sanding spindle but that didn't happen.
The spindle oscillates straight up and down. The table is easily adjustable for different angles. Spindle changing is relatively easy but you might skin a knuckle or two. Longer handled wrenches would have been nice. Because of its weight, I built a mobile cabinet and mounted it permanently to it. It has a drawer to keep the wrenches and sanding sleeves. Buy some fine grade sleeves as the 120 grit leaves pretty large grooves. It's more like an 80 grit finish.
