Porter-Cable 121 OSS - Anybody have one?

[Doug Shepard]

Does anyone here have one of the portable Oscillating Spindle Sanders that PC makes?

Cant find anything on their website regarding how wide of an edge you can sand with this. Lots of broken links on their site. How well does it work? Was wondering about using one to sand the edges on a 4" BB ply benchtop core.

I have a PC 121. It works well. I mainly use it in a router table as a fixed OSS, but ocassionally use it freehand. Although the belts are 4.5" wide, the actual sanding area--the portion below the face--is only about 3.5"; i.e., you can use it to sand edges up to about 3.5" thick.

I also have the PC 121. It really came in handy when I built this:

The front door of my shop. It would have been quite difficult to hold it up on my OSS. :rolleyes:

So close, but yet so far:(
It might still work out though I'd still have to follow up with a flush trim bit to get the remainder even with the sanded portion.
