Any Sand Flee experts out there? I am refurbishing one and am looking for some additional information, specifically...
1. Is RJR still in business?
2. Is there another place to find replacement parts?
3. Does anyone have a manual?
4. How do you level the table to ensure that the top of the sanding drum is co-planar with the table top?
5. What's the best sandpaper to use and where do you buy it?
6. Is there a template for cutting the sandpaper?

Sorry for all the questions, but I'd love to see if I could get this back up and running.

Thank you for the responses. Looks like RJR Studios must be out of business...no responses to email and a full voicemail box when I call. Anyone here have one?

Don't have one but the Stockroom Supply version is the same concept and they are still around.

I can email you a pdf of what are called the assembly instructions. It is basically five pages and includes a template instruction on how to cut the abrasive for wrapping it on the drum, if you are interested. John
