I have the woodmaster 718. I finally used it this last weekend with very impressive results. i have the power platform with the router attachment. i was looking at the woodmastertools.com website and shopping the accesories portion of the website. i found the sanding wheel motor and attachment

http://woodmastertools.com/NS/accessdetail.cfm?PID=69.

they are charging alot for the motor and mount (in my opinion). so i searched amazon for the motor:

http://www.amazon.com/1725rpm-208-230-Leeson-Electric-110086/dp/B0009WMRCI/ref=sr_1_9/102-9302170-9120121?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1185906140&sr=8-9

the description on the woodmaster site say it comes with a 1"x6" arbor shaft, but i cant find one on amazon. does anyone have this setup? i need some advice on creating my own setup rather than buy one from woodmaster or whether it is really necessary. i am getting good result from the machine (stain quality trim) but was wonder if i can get even better results with this system.

here is the link to the sanding wheel itself:
