Hi All,
Just joined and MAN whatta great source!!!
I'd like to know if anybody out there is familiar with the Woodmaster W800 wide belt sander. I have a chance to pick one up for free but it's quite a drive to go get it.
I've looked and looked on the web and can find zilch on this thing. I've been looking at drum sanders but I've been told if I can get a wide belt I'd be much happier.
Strange thing is, this sander is single phase and around 5hp and all the other wide belts I'm looking at are almost all 3 phase and much more HP. That's why I'm wondering if the W800 is worth the trouble.
If any of ya out there have any insight to this unit, I'd sure appreciate an opinion.
ThanxAll,
Rich.
